[Tango-L] Pudding

I am curious, is there anything that posted here that won't start a
bickering conflict? I really get tired of it. 

Or maybe everyone here likes to get caught up in drama because they think
Tango requires it? 

I enjoy the technical parts of all conversations but being so critical all
the time is both petty and boring. 

After 30 years in martial arts, I got sick of "who's style is more real" and
left. I may have to do it with Tango also. Or at least all Tango list.

By "call it" I wasn't referring to my evaluation of the videos, I was
referring to the immediate appearance of a post that nitpicked the spelling
of a tango term rather than contributing anything that could actually help
me with my dancing.

Chris, your post stated that Jennifer's videos showed no regard for the
rhythm of the music. Have you an interest in illustrating what you mean? If
it doesn't work like that, how does it work? Show me what you mean.

But if you want a

But not by referring to someone ELSE'S video. If you have something to say
about the deficiencies of someone else's dancing, then I am very interested
in seeing YOU in a video. Let's see YOU, dear.

The proof is in the pudding.
