Yep, sadly, Gregor, there was a distinct lack of soap at the campsite... and clean water... and common sense... and logic.
My biggest problem was that all these old hippy folk (original 60's generation) were slobbing around doing absolutely nothing on the mountainside but disscussing endlessly with each other about how the government of the time was bad, and the system of society at the time was wrong and useless - However, come the 3rd of each month they were more than happy to rush down the mountain into the town so that they could collect their unemployment cheque which was provided to them by that particular governements policies on unemployment, and paid for by people who were participating in that "wrong and useless" system of society. It was just silly.
I'm with Icewolf and The Mighty Midget on this one.
Oddly enough, I still have that damnable tin whistle tucked away in a cupboard somewhere...
EDIT That's true Nace, there is nothing at all wrong with wanting Peace and Free Love, but I just think that the Hippy movement didn't have a profound impact on peace in the long run, and the consequences of Free Love were morbidly disasterous.
