[Tango-L] Basta Ya!

[Club~Tango*La Dolce Vita~]

Hi Deby,
   
  You, yourself - in your posting intended to defend Derik - have just beaten him up again...! Poor guy!  >:-))))
   
  In your criticism of his attackers, in reality, you've just criticised Derik himself! After-all, from what I've read, it is HE who pontificates his style, ability etc ...AND criticises those styles/tangueros he doesn't like...! >:-)))))
   
  Let's all give him another thrashing... once 'round again, eh? >:-)))))))
   
  Nothing personal, Derik. It's just that, occasionally, society calls for a nice 'whipping-boy'. You've come along at just the right time to fit the bill ...just perfectly. Well done, son!
   
  Cheers,
   
  Dani
  'El Zorro de Tango' >:-)

  Can we stop beating Derek up? I along with probably the people who 
email me off this list are sick of hearing about this topic. Dance 
whatever you want, where you want how you want with who you want, but 
for God's sake dance instead of pontificating that your style, his 
style, that style, no style, along with incompetent, competent, self 
appointed, anointed teachers.

I have absolutely no problem with discussions of style, music, or 
interactions. But when a conversation turns emotional and personal, it 
is time to take it off the floor. You are never going to convince 
anyone that their personal experience regardless of what it is, is 
wrong. You do not have to agree with someone's experience, but you have 
to respect it whether you agree with it or no. A person's experience is 
never wrong - it is a personal choice, which we all have the right to make.
