An interesting footnote from history. The Dancing Plague of 1518. Just stumbled over it myself. Not sure what to do with it, so I'll leave it here. A strange story and one that could be linked to the famous events in Salem via the ergot fungi rye contamination theory.

I wonder if people who could not dance actually danced?

Seems ripe for some suggestive hypnosis type thing...
