A fine idea, but a contest of entrechats might have been more fun and, if Pliny 
is to be believed (quoted in Logan on the Scottish Gael, p. 301), sacred dances 
are mediatorial.

There are those who might not wish to call such a dance "sacred," but they must 
stand, surely, over with pickers of the nit?
