Fred -

!!!I like folk - because - I like folk!!!!

As an added bonus:

1. It is easy
2. It is enduring/timeless
3. It has universal appeal and crosses generations
4. It is rooted in the history and society which spawned it.

In short - my existence is enriched by connecting to people, events and stories that transcend time.

Because of these qualities the folk-traditions should be shared with youth.
