The dark legacy of Carlos Castaneda
The godfather of the New Age led a secretive group of devoted followers in the last decade of his life. His closest "witches" remain missing, and former insiders, offering new details, believe the women took their own lives.

    Word.

    I was mildly interested in the article since I tried to read Castaneda in college at a friend's urging (I really tried, but got bored and never finished it) and hadn't realized that a cult had formed from the collection of meanderings. But I never expected that people would be lining up to defend these meanderings as Great Truth.

    Admit it: you guys use "grok" in normal conversation without a hint of irony, don't you?
