Subject: Re: Caminito, de la Boca a Israel
While my posting on Caminito in Isreal arrived to my Tango-L mailbox with
accents in place, I understand that many of you may have gotten an
alphanumeric soup, due to the format La Nacion uses. I'm sorry for any
frustration this may have caused. I'll be happy to re-send it privately to
anyone who's interested.

Subject: Inviting to dance with an eye contact and a nod -
I guess that although there is plenty of light at the milongas if your
vision is not very
good you could have some troubles.
Last night we went dancing to the Jockey Club of Mar del Plata. There were
so many good dancers that we kept going most of the time. By 4AM. as we were
really tired my friend Julian and I sat for a moment. Julian was overcome by
sleep, closed his eyes for a moment, his head went down, in a sudden nod.
An older lady that was sitting across from us
gave a jump and in one instant she was by our table, in front of Julian;
she said - Yes, young man, I do dance!- Julian, opened his eyes very big;
for a moment he must have thought he was dreaming; then he stood up and
cheerfully he went dancing once more.

How else would we learn invaluable facts about the Tango, if not for these
"tear down others" "experts"?
If it wasn't for the Big Bob's messages, we wouldn't know that he knows
"nada" about how to lead back ochos and thinks that ganchos are "nuevo
tango acrobatics".
If it wasn't for the soap opera characters in South Florida, we would not
know that successful hair transplants and knock-off merchandising are not
just a fantasy in Miami Beach, and that just a few drinks can turn a
"living legend" into a mere human being.
Let the people speak!!!
Al (A.T.).

A wonderfully revealing proof of my concept, courtesy of the self-described

Subject: STOP IT !!!!!!!
STOP IT, STOP IT....
Enough is enough !!!! This is a disgrace. I cannot believe we treat each
other this way !!! Stop !!!
Moderator, please don't publish this kind of stuff ever again. Please read
the correspondence before sending it out. I hope you don't just sit there
and laugh at this sort of childish, nasty and cruel stuff.
I feel very sorry for those of you whose mission in life is to destroy other
people's reputation and for those of you who reply in such a manner.
I am starting to believe that this list is really for those of you who are
lonely, sick and cruel. I am definitly signing-off from the tango list.
Get your acts together and get a life....
