What's this for?
I get asked a lot of questions, particularly by my students and event promoters.
Sometimes I get asked a great question while teaching but I can't take the time to answer it in class (because it's not contextually appropriate, or would be too lengthy, etc).
Sometimes I get asked great questions outside of class--in the hallway/street/restaurant/hotel at an event, or during a private lesson, or by email/Facebook/etc--and I think my answer might be useful and interesting to a larger audience. (This is reinforced by the fact that I often get the same questions repeatedly.)
Dance questions range from technical to thematic to semantics to the 'big picture'. And on another level, event promoters and the scene in general are wrestling with a whole host of questions pertaining to how to structure and run events from things like workshop schedules to music to contests.
Another category of questions I get often is biographical--how I got started dancing or teaching, what I think of all the travel, etc. While I don't think most of these questions are as interesting or important, if answering them here cuts down on the number of times I have to repeat myself in the future I think that's a fair trade.

One final, completely unrelated category of questions I get asked a lot as a geek are of the: "what do you think of X?/what X should I buy?" variety, where X is a laptop/phone/GPS/video-card/etc. I actually really enjoy these questions as well.

So go ahead, ask me anything!
