In short, [probably digressing entirely from the OP - I'm not
sure - too lazy to look] - movements with a religious devotion
of "HERE'S THIS AWESOME THING!" beats out any efforts that are
top down and structured, especially when it's something Good.
Bad may travel faster, but good manages to overcome, because bad
is afraid and good is fearless I believe that large amounts of
people without a particular agenda except,"Wow - hey, this is
neat" - and sharing with friends, has an extraordinary power.
Such is the tale I tell myself anyway. And as far as
mythological constructs go, I like it. smile emoticon
