re: the article on the bedouin

There is not much in this world that brings one closer to God then camping in the desert. The harshness and beauty of it all is beyond words. The stars that are too plentiful bring the heavens right to you.

Before the recent terror activities in Saudi, this was one of our favorite things to do.

AJ, That is a very impressive narration, and is quite thought provoking. At the first read, it bobbled my mind a bit, and need more time to delve further into it. I will get back to you before very long.

I'm glad to see you around again.

Link doesn't work for me. Is that by T.E. Lawrence? Seven Pillars of Wisdom or something like that?

Edit: aha! Good guess, and better link.

My mother has a very nice copy of the book, which I have never read - will have to borrow. Thought I recognized the style.
