Boopsie: Neat session today, wasn't it, B.D.? B.D.: Yeah, the hunk was hot! It's time we took him on the road! Boopsie: I agree! Let's announce the world tour on August 16! B.D.: What's so special about August 16? Boopsie: You're joking! August 16, 1987 is the harmonic convergence! Thousands will be observing the dawning of a new age of higher consciousness! B.D.: Any eats? Barbecue, or... ha! Someone dropped a quarter! Boopsie: Actually, I though we might fast in the desert.

Yeah, “The Great Harmonica Con Virgins” where everyone formed a line and held hands across the country ( or was it the world ? )

I lived in Sedona, Arizona at the time. The Crystal Crunching….er…New Age Capital of the World.
You can imagine the flocks of pigeons…uh…believers,.searching out the right vortex to be standing in, when the “Convergence” took place.

Made a lot of money selling little Vortex Red Rocks !

Boy — memories.I watched the sun rise from an elevated picnic area off a state highway in East Texas. I was with a Brit I’d met at work; he was in the US sight-seeing and trying to expand his business from across the pond.Now I’m old, he’s a long time dead, and things are worse than ever in terms of harmony and/or convergence.
