How about the ability to see that this thread is "bait"?

Here, fishy fishy!

But here's my answer, ignoring the silly beginning: The ability to THINK is a very good thing to have in fencing. The strongest, fastest, etc. doesn't always win. The smartest, well...they know how to use their skills.

But pans can't ache, they have no nerves...they are inanimate objects!

Unless you mean Pan, but then he's dead, so He cannot ache either.

Am I the only one who thinks that the Holy Grail was extremely funny, but that all of the jokes have been completely killed like 10 times over?

Most important attribute of a fencer: Ability to post inane comments about comics, word games, a brat-pack, chickens, and satellite imagery.
