... actually ten months ago. In September 2008.
I wonder if anyone remembers. I "asked a silly question". And I got lots
of not-at-all-silly answers. :)
It was about cases in (Indian or other) folklore or fiction where
"things come alive".

As several other people were involved, I guess it's just as well if I
answer also to the whole list.
It's online. http://gandalf.it/stupid/idols.htm
And yes, it is for free distribution/circulation. :)
What took me so long? The answer is that I had much more material than
could fit into the page. So I put it in a "supplement" - to be published
after I had finished the rest of the book.
Comments will be welcome (of course including criticism or correction).
I am not sure that this is "the finished page". It may be still "work in
progress" - though obviously I don't intend to turn it into an
encyclopedia (that could fill a thousand pages and take a hundred years
of never-really-finished searching and writing).
Anyhow, warm thanks again to all that helped me - and said that they had
fun doing it. :)
Cheers
