I saw a 4-page spread in the Spokane Spokesman on a multi-day festival/seminar centered around contacting the fairy realm (here: http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2009/jul/05/beyond-the-veil/). Part of me says 'they're fruit loops, but they aren't hurting anyone'. But on the other hand I have a sense that supporting such unabashed nonsense is harmful somehow, although I am having difficulty putting my finger on why.
Maybe it has to do with the death of common sense, where if we are expected to take a bunch of fruits, flakes, and nuts getting together to commune with the fairies seriously (!) that we'll be expected to accept other patent bullshit just as readily. Stimulus, anyone?
