Well, I found it interesting that the ebay easter hunt 'community' discussion has at least brushed on some cultural issues eg "...easter isnt about jesus. christians seem to celebrate christs death memorial on easter but easter itself is the goddess of springtime and fertility. thats why eggs and bunny rabbits are symbols of easter cause an egg is a symbol some something newborn and nothing breeds faster than rabbits."
It seems that anywhere people congregate opinions will bounce around and be discussed. Are these fleeting, almost intangible moments actually the time and space where community happens? Maybe...
