In 2002, a resident on campus bought Chas Tenenbaum's red tracksuit on eBay for a large amount. He always wore it. My friends said he was very creepy, and having met him, saw it gave him a source of pride, something he didn't have much of at the time. I think a lot can be learned from artifacts, but some prefer to be a walking museum.

The Mao Zedong Mango Cult made me laugh. The price people are willing to pay for that sense of a personal connection never ceases to amaze.
