[Tango-L] Let's save the social dance!

[AJ Azure]

You'd like to save the social dance? Go look at what that is. Not
segregated. 1920s, 30s the big social dance era had all types of dancing at
social events. It's time to stop the compartmentalization and segregation
society seems to be heading towards. Totally xenophobic! Whatever happened
to a renaissance style mindset? Ack we're dying because of the ultra
specialization era we're living in.
