I need some help from the flist on this one, particularly those of you who consider yourself fannish. I'm interested in what the experience of fandom is like for people, generally, I think. If you could take a moment and comment below, I'd appreciate it.

What I'm particularly interested in knowing about are things like: how/when do you know you are a fan? What are your criteria for determining who is and is not a part of a fandom? What sorts of activities, if any, are you likely to participate in due to or related to your fandom? Does it affect your language or other behavior outside of strictly fandom-related activities? How does your fandom play out in your day-to-day life, if at all? That sort of thing.

Seriously. Talk to me about fandom. It's for a class I'm working on.

Thanks!

Court okays use of hallucinogenic tea for religious group.

Wow. On the one hand, they are a faith-based organization, and we're big on looking the other way on what churches do these days provided that they also talk about Jesus, but the last time I checked, we were also big on Drugs being Bad. Mixed feelings abound.
