I don't know why Cary insists on publishing the other Jubilation var. as his authoritative take on the original Gene Hubert dance -- who on earth wants to chain with their current neighbors and then immediately whip around to balance their next neighbors?
Cary, if you're reading this, put this version back on your website. It rocks and I call it all the time.
