I was in Vietnam in 67 as a draftee and I noted that the Vietnamese are
very superstitious. They have altars in their homes to appease spirits of
dead relatives, and altars out by the roadside to appease wandering
spirits. They don't even clip their toenails at night because of some
superstition or another. I like them, though.
