[Tango-L] Marketing or hype?

[David Hodgson]

Well Tom;
It will end when a guy finally gets too dizzy of going round and round, has
a drink and sees that some other dancers are caught up in superlatives.
Sees an attractive woman, cabeceo (silently saying "Woman, dance"), and
moves with the rest of the floor.
Hear the heart beat of the woman, she feels nice in the arms, and we dance. 

Who cares about nuclear bombs.
David

PS: I do derive some pleasure from annoying grammarians.

Naaah, not fraud. It's just the same Superlative Crisis that has been  
sweeping the world these last few years.

There just aren't enough superlatives to deal with all the extra- 
ordinary, far beyond mortal, Gods among mere god-lets that we have in  
tango. If the last great master was beyond amazing, then the next one  
has to be a master of masters.

Sure, he's just a shoe salesman, but he's <hushed-awe>ARGENTINE</ 
hushed-awe>.

Where will this nuclear arms race ever end!?
