Dear David,

Maybe that's true. What is not true is, that I (We, the Javanese) am still "living" with keris. And not with books. We talk with books, because we must have at least something certain. Not just telling, telling, and story telling. But please, do as you like in this keris world.

Why more horrible? Just say "buntel mayat" to the Indonesian people. What Indonesian people know about the word "mayat" is only corpse. Even though he is Javanese. So please say it to them... "buntel mayat, buntel mayat" Sounds very horrible...
