"Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose
them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

- Michael Ignatieff, addressing Stanford University in 2012

...I can't believe we didn't have a Stardance troupe in place as soon as we could... This must be corrected.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.

Just for the record, Jessica Ayanami is the Roughrider's 'sole' representative in the competitions.

The core group of the Blue Blazers, including J.'s wife Radical, his former partner Stranger, and a number of others who followed the original four into space are Burners, frequenting Burning Man and other similar events when they can. Consequently, they are trained fire dancers, specializing in spinning poi, staves, and hula hoops, both electronically lit and flaming. Given how fire behaves in zero-g, there are doubtless several competition and exhibition teams.
