Yeah, well, that was his first, and IIRC, his only time there.  The Tendo 
home, which I assumed was the case in question, is a place he spends quite 
a bit of time in.  

besides, he _was_ able to find the bathroom in Shampoo's place, wasn't 
he?^_^

Either way, I'd think that over time, they would find each other- how long 
is unknown, though.

Well, yeah... but interpretation of the character isn't the same thing as the 
characters themselves.  Besides, I thought the issue was about whether or 
not it would have happened in the manga.  Saying yes because that's the 
way Hotnit interpreted it isn't the best answer.^_^

Probably a good 95% of our members don't even post here much.
