Did my use of the term "hippies" offend? If so, I apologize. I assumed it was commonly accepted that lots of folks in Puna were hippies. But yeah, I guess not original hippies... unless you were pushing 70. I am neither a hippie nor a Boomer, so if I misused the term and caused offense to anyone as a result of that, please forgive my ignorance. Several of my friends here are in fact original hippies, and delightful because of that. And Puna will become what it will... I did not mean anything preconditioned by my use of the term "sophisticated" either.
