Kevin Beal Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 http://www.npr.org/blogs/thetwo-way/2013/12/24/256863444/highway-in-iceland-may-be-sidetracked-by-elves Elf advocates have joined forces with environmentalists to urge the Icelandic Road and Coastal Commission and local authorities to abandon a highway project building a direct route from the Alftanes peninsula, where the president has a home, to the Reykjavik suburb of Gardabaer. Ragnhildur Jonsdottir, a self-proclaimed seer who says she can communicate with the elves, tells the AP it would be a "terrible loss and damaging both for the elf world and for us humans" if the road is built. Another seer, though, thinks it's possible that the elves could be talked into moving their church out of the road's way. But Erla Stefánsdóttir also tells Iceland's Visir newssite that "they love this place." The local elves, trolls and fairies, she says, need to be consulted.

nathanm Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Looks like it's time to move the Brian Froud books into the non-fiction section of the stores. This is also another feather in the cap of anarchism. In a stateless, roadless world we may no longer be able to leave our shabby, burning homes to buy poisoned meat at the store, but it will mean that elves can roam wherever they want. That is a vision of the future we can all agree on I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
