"I don't want future generations having to learn it wrong and then relearn it as I am being faced with now because of certain sites and (people) that have been teaching it incorrectly and without my permission."Dude...seriously...it's the Electric Slide! The term "artistic integrity" really doesn't apply here. No?

"You Gotta Know It...It's Electric!"
Richard Silver, the inventor of the "Electric Slide," an idiotic dance from 1976 that has become a tragic staple at wedding receptions all across America, is having a bitch fit! In an attempt to get America to do the dance correctly (several steps are apparently left out in its current incarnation), as well as an attempt to get compensation for public displays of the Slide (he apparently copyrighted the thing), Silver (no relation to the Sylvers singing family of the same era) is considering a lawsuit to protect the "artistic integrity" of his dance.
