A Canuck Religous Studies Major I know is doing her thesis on Hutterites and how they differ from other anabaptists. She is looking for anyone who videotaped the Cinemax special on rumspringa , could they e-mail me off board .

I wish I had taped that. I saw it in my uncle's house in London and - assuming it was the same docu - it was one of the most fascinating things I've ever seen. The Amish shot up in my estimation - I love the idea of them letting their young go out and live a bit before they can decide if the Amish life is really for them.

erm, not quite the response you wanted, but still.

the young Amishers go mad... driving cars, wearing modern clothes, dealing drugs, casual sex, the works.

I wish I had had some of that when I was young.

I had really wanted to see this, but am currently too poor to have anything other than basic cable.

Definition of a geek: Someone who hears about a documentary about the Amish on NPR and thinks "Man, I really want to see that." In other words, me.

Yeah, that's why I wanted to see it too. But I already knew I was a geek.
