Gary,

Yes burn it on a DVD. I missed it last night. When I contacted my
local NBC station they said they didn't expect it would be repeated
any time soon.

Let me know when you have burned a copy on a DVD.


Square Dancingly Yours,

I guess there was both positive and negative in the way square dancing was
portrayed on the Tonight Show last night.  Positive in that, despite the
ribbing some
of the dancers got, they took it in stride and continued to have fun
anyway.  Positive
too, in that some of our younger dancers made it to camera.  The negative,
as I saw
it, was that the majority of dancers were up there in the years.  This, in
my mind,
made square dancing look like more of a senior's activity, rather than an
all-age
group activity for families.  And as expected, the attire appeared to come
under
attack.  The are just my immediate thoughts on the show.

If anyone missed it, I suspect the piece will be available in a few days on
the Tonight
Show website.  I can burn a copy of last night's show onto DVD for those
who can't
wait.
