Now you are getting the point that lot of BJJ guys get on a hissy fit about TKD being a fighting style. How can you fight when you don't even touch either in practice.

Sounds like the fighting bug has bit ya bro. If you are going to be in Florida, I'll bring my gi and we'll roll! Did you get a chance to check out http://www.judoinfo.com yet? Great stuff in there, throws, animated, etc. As you know, any technique to become muscle memory takes thousands of reps. I got me a spar pro, that I put a gi on, and took one of my belts and used it for arms. You can practice kazushi pretty well on it.
