[Tango-L] snarky comments on Atlanta demo

No, that's not all you were saying.   I was in
Atlanta.  I saw some beautiful dancing not only by all
the instructors, but also by the 350+ dancers who were
there - most of then Americans.  What you are ignorant
of, among other things, is that of that 350, perhaps
80% of them have spent time in BsAs and all of them
have studied with Argentine teachers - probably many
more than you have.

I know whom you admire.  I know what kind of show
dancing you think is great.  I differ in my opinion.  
I also have reports on your dancing from women who
have danced with you.  I can go watch an intermediate
class of show tango anytime I want.  I leave in 14
days for my tenth trip to BsAs where I will see and
enjoy Argentine dancing.  I also had some amazing
tandas in Atlanta.   

Talk about what you know.  And don't believe
everything some tango hustler in BsAs tells you.  And
before I agree that Javier is a great dancer, I would
have to dance with him.
