RE: [CFML] Digest Number 863

I have fenced for 52 years and I am horrified that
extending the arm (and point) toward a valid target,
will not be considered as the attack and as
establishing the right of way. I have wakened into a
new nightmare. Can one move toward the opponent with
one's point, for instance, pointing to one's rear and
still be making an "attack"?Or do you mean the
movement of the FOIL forward will constitute the
attack? Ray
