AtDDtA: Dance at Chicago World's Fair

	--timeline and history of dance, with this ATD relevant tidbit:

1893 Sol Bloom brings Algerian village to the Chicago World's fair. The name 'belly dance' is coined. Oulid Nails (fully clothed) are among the dancers. The public is entranced while the censors are enraged. A dancer called Little Egypt (who is probably a fictitious amalgam of dancers who performed at the fair) is credited with saving the fair from financial ruin. The church is scandalized.

Most carols were divided into the stanza, meaning to 'stand' or 'halt', and the chorus, which means 'dance'.

If you wonder at my prolix posts today, I used WordsEx to read
a folder from an old Surf4Me query that tried to re-find a specific
URL containing the phrase "one symbol is given two interpretations".

Yours truly,
