[Tango-L] Who leads what, who follows what

Hi Doug,

I think that maybe I misunderstood your post. Sorry for the confusion...

I hope you did not think that I judged your dancing... I've never seen you dance and I really have no idea of who you are. I read in your posts that you wrote that your partner was great but you sucked.... I actually thought you were being too hard on yourself....

OK, you got me there. Good joke on me ;-). Obviously you are already quite an accomplished tango dancer. You had me going there for a while, LOL.... I'm sorry, I should have never presumed to give you advise. 

Cheers,
