Why didn't Glinda tell her the shoes would bring her home? "Because she wouldn't have believed me."

Was anyone besides Dorothy taken in by this? I mean, come on. She was standing in Munchkinland, in color, surrounded by little people and witches, having been swept there by a tomado. Does anyone think that if Glinda had said, "Try banging the shoes together," Dorothy would have said, "Hah! You expect me to believe that! I'll walk, thanks?"

Well . . . It could have been FedEx bringing balloons to the Lollypop guild. :P
Honesty is the best policy, but insanity is a better defence. :shucks:
