I am still lurking. If I get lucky, this will get through because I loved Bibi as a friend, and I would suggest that all those who miss her and would like to know who she was put "Bibi Wong" into google and you will find umpteen postings of her in the tango-l archive, also her professional profile and other links to her. I still have some photos of me and her in my screensaver folder and maybe I should upload one to my tribe.net album with a few words of farewell to a friend I respected very much. Bibi had a way of looking stunningly pretty and perfect on each and every photo of her and she had lots of them as she would travel around the world, go to the milonga whereever she was, put her arms around the shoulders of the people around her and have her picture taken this way. I got to see all kinds of interesting tango dancers this way that I had only heard about before. I would like to say that Bibi Wong was also the one who went to Triangulo, New York and took a photo of Carlos Lima, and then went to Club Canaro in Tokyo and took a photo of me, and sent those photos to both of us. This was in the age when digital cameras were not so popular yet but she had one, and this way Carlos and I could finally see each other, after writing to each other almost every day for a year already. This is one of the long kept secrets behind tango-L. ; )
