Gregory,

first of all.. you didn't turn anything down, because it was not your
decision to turn anything down - if you don't want me to GUARANTEE that the
the dance list will be out by end of February, then by all means, feel free
to do so yourself... I challenge you post the ball list by February 28.

Second of all, if you're going to make things up, please at least keep it in
this universe.  I never said that I was going to radically change anything.
I didn't even say that I was going to change anything.  All I said was that
I will make sure that the dance community will know what dances will be at
the ball next war by end of February.  I also said that any changes I might
propose WILL be run thru a few other people whose opinions I value and will
determine if those changes are waranted.

So.. before you put words in other people's mouths, please consider who you
will insult in the process (yet again...)
