The Holistic Expo was held in Carrborro yesterday. Visitors were treated with vendors hyping copper pentaspheres that turns your negative chi into positive chi, titanium and germanium bracelets that improve your circulation and tarot card readings. Amazingly, most people seemed to view all of this without openly guffawing.
A steady stream of people came by to check out the free event and participate in some of the activities, like having their aura photographed and analyzed or having a cardiovascular health screening. …
Vendors happily explained their methods to visitors, some of whom bought books, perused brochures and pocketed business cards so that they could make future appointments with the practitioners.
Watching this sad spectacle, it’s not surprising that so many could believe in man-mad global warming.
