Actually, the more significant question is: who knows more about selling it. As any Chilean will tell you ;) the first words every Argentine learns are "mama", "papa" and "marketing". > I teach. And I do my very best to do it the way many Argentines have > taught me. Do not mistake a means of making money for a means of making dancers. It's no coincidence that the methods of so many local teachers - Americans or otherwise - differ widely from those of the touring step peddlars. The local teacher stays around long enough for the community to find out whether his/her teaching actually works. -- Chris PS Juan D'Arienzo "Loca" http://youtube.com/watch?v=bMub8eiOylI (video 2m30s) _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
