| John,
Niether party is wrong. Its apples and oranges. there were hobbyists organizations in Japan dating back prior to the ZNA organizing under its curent name in about 1968. Taba could very well mean that they are the oldest , still in existanace under their same name? And reading Tabe, it was formed primarily by Japanese in the Hawaiian Islands and would still add credance to Ron's point that the hobby is a Japanese hobby. I don't see a who's right nor who's wrong answer but that they are both correct?
