[Tango-L] Abusing the available space

[John Lowry]

Valerie says:
Consider for a minute anyone you know who behaves responsibly. Did he  
or she learn etiquette from a teacher? Probably not. Polite people
seem to come pre-packaged..............

Probably did.  The teacher is usually a parent.

The people with no navigation skills, watching their feet, rote  
(figures) learned so they can't stop, even when they want to,  
compulsive amateur "teachers" ("you're meant to do this" - if I was  
subjected to this humiliation I would immediately leave the floor) and  
the overblown male and female egos stand out like a beacon.  Mostly  
they are decent, polite people.  Apart from the last, it is  
substantially a teaching / learning problem, and even the last may be  
moderated by a tactful teacher.
