Hmm, and just how would you define "normal society"? I've had to live in some pretty abnormal locations (for me anyways) that those around me at the time considered the status quo, and I can tell you for sure and for certain my living habits and conditions would not compare well to those of my neighbors.

Just because I am surrounded by sheep doesn't mean I must also become one. Of course I ain't gonna go advertising that I am not like the prey around me, but what they don't know, right?...
