	Mischa Berlinski -- Hupasha and The Headman (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Wherever the Lisu lived, they prided themselves that they were not such to submit themselves to any temporal authority - be it to an authoritarian headman demanding obeisance, to a Chinese mandarin demanding duty, or even to their neighbors, asking that an unruly dog be bound.
		The Lisu believed that the spirits which caused madness were easily confused, and that in fighting these spirits the most effective tactic was to outwit them: the pants were intended to convince the spirits that they had lodged in the wrong part of the body, after which they would, presumably, flee.
		Finally, Eugene Morse told his Lisu audience about the end time, about the plagues and the devils and the boiling seas - and he told it them as a fact, as he believed it to be, imbuing his oratory with all of the implicit authority of a traveler from a distant land.
