[Tango-L] Fwd: Speed of movement around milonga's floor

[NANCY]

I got a laugh from your snottiness.  I am a twelve
year veteran of tango, dance in 
Buenos Aires every year, have danced with Gavito
several times, am well aware he is dead.   In fact,
you complimented me a few months ago on my dancing.  

And....I have seen you dance.
