Dan Spink Asks For Different Use of "Stride"

While I totally agree with all the comments I've been reading about the use 
of piano to drive the horns, etc., etc., I must request that some people not 
use the word "stride" to simply mean "Boom Chuck" or, as others often do, 
another way to say ragtime. Stride is more a variation of ragtime where the 
left hand rolls off the base  note onto a 10th (or other interval) to create 
a moving base feeling. Jame P. Johnson and Fats Waller records show this very 
clearly.
