In *Cracking Chestnuts* by David Smuckler & David Millstone, there is a
humorous and most enlightening history of the evolution of Money Musk which
runs 12 pages.
While I completely respect the authors original intent and choreography, I
do agree that there is room for variation when the need arises. Factors
could include heat, physical condition, and plenty of other reasons.
Dances are also being tweaked and given different names often enough.
Richard's point about the Odyssey is especially cogent.
What a great list. Thanks everyone.
