I recently realized I hadn't gotten any notice of needing to renew my membership in the Lloyd Shaw Foundation for 2020, though perhaps I just misplaced it. However, I have no record of having paid it. In the past this has usually come in January or February.
I attempted to send a message to Bill Litchman (President) and Nancy Kane VP) at the addresses listed for them on the web site. My email to them bounced with what looks like permanent fatal errors.
Can anyone tell me I can contact someone from the organization?
Thanks.

A: It depends on what dance you call!
We should all just switch to ECD...

The idea is not new, but it is, of course, pertinent.
I’ve been looking for an old dance card I had since at least the mid 80s, for The Atomic Contra. It, too, was a no touching dance. It’s concept was dancing after a nuclear accident or war, and dancing with partners that were too radioactive to touch…
If I locate it, I’ll post it.

If you’re not averse to squares… here’s one from Lloyd Shaw’s seminal work, _Cowboy Dances_ (1939):
DON’T YOU TOUCH HER
First gent out around the opposite lady,
And don’t you touch her.
Now back around your own,
And don’t you touch her.
All four gents around the right hand ladies,
And don’t you touch ’em.
Now promenade those ladies fair,
But touch ’em? No sir, don’t you dare!
