Who is Mark Stibich? You'll find this article published on a number of websites, but as far as I know, no one who's ever talked to him. Based on the longevity of this article in contra dance website circles, his observations as someone who apparently never caught the trad dance bug are considered a fun read.

It first appeared on student.com sometime around December 2001 and was last seen on that site in December 2004. Thank you Internet Wayback Machine!
