magnetic ley lines

[Joseph Kohut]

I've been found out: I'm not a Shirley Mclain fan.  But what grounds have
you impugn my past life with Shirley? (She had a different name then.)

Seriously, I can think of a host of interrelated geographic, historical,
economic and religous reasons why the Camino developed as it did. I think
these are more reasonable than believing in 'ley magnetic lines' or
whatever.

BTW, I suspected a rebuttal of this sort, but for the sake of reasonableness
on this forum I will pursue it no further.

Joe
