I was recently calling for a contradance at the Maine Social Forum. It was a crowd of primarily beginners, with only a smattering of experienced folks. During one of the dances, one young man got a cell phone call. He stepped out of line to take the call! His partner carried on for a moment or two, but then the line started to break down. I had to jump into the line and grab his partner - calling while we danced - to keep it going. It worked. Fortunately I'd had a little practice on this at another dance earlier this summer when an elderly gentleman simply decided to step out and sit down during a - thankfully - very simple dance - and I had done the same thing rather than stop or let the line crumble. Just wanted to "share" :-) -cynthia ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)sharedweight.net http://www.sharedweight.net/mailman/listinfo/callers End of Callers Digest, Vol 25, Issue 1 **************************************
