Astrid, is this the woman you think is Jennifer Bratt? I do not think
so. you may have been looking at another youtube clip that Victor
posted, which is not the one I was referring to.  check this out:

Martin, who you are calling a "robotic stick figure from practica x
without any soul" is actually Jennifer Bratt who has been a member of
this list for many years, and is the ex partner of Robin Thomas (who can
be seen in the pics of Providence, whereever that is, but someone called
it one of the tango capitals of this world recently in here). And I
quite like the way she dances and cannot really see a major difference
to the style of the girl dancing with Chicho in your youtube video.
