Morocco's Meanderings    Quite possibly one of the most well-known names in belly dancing in the United States, and certainly on the net on any ME Dance related mailing list, bulletin board, or otherwise.  Few are as dedicated and educated as Morocco in belly dancing past, present, and future.  Just a gander at her site will confirm that.
