contra dance

I recently wrote a major addition for contra dance. after writing all I knew, I started reading and ended up with a print-out of my addition covered in red-ink notes. travelling, I carried that printout with me for over a month... and now I've accidentally left it in new hampshire while I am speeding off to turkey.

what I cut before submitting:

====History====
 Centuries ago, the most common contra dances were triple minors danced in short sets (usually 6 to 8 couples)
 or "whole-set" dances, in which only one couple in the entire set is active (triplets are whole-set dances
 for very short sets).
