Re: >>infinite number of rednecks riding in an infinite number of pickup trucks fire and infinite number of shotgun rounds at an infinite number of highway signs<<... how quickly would they create the world's finest literature in Braille? Too many variables to think of...wow what a tough algebra question! To wit: One variable would be what percentage of the pickup trucks actually have wheels, and which ones are up on cinder blocks in the front yard? At what rate should we assume some rednecks get killed by another redneck's stray bullets? How drunk is each redneck? This would affect bullet hole (that is, Braille-dot) formation. (Notice I didn't even bother to ask if any of the rednecks are sober.) If a Confederacy flag is flying from the antenna (if the pickup has a coat hanger for an antenna, this does not apply), to what extent is target visibility reduced? What percentage of rednecks have their old lady and young 'uns screaming in the rear cab? This too would distract our budding Braille authors :-) Bye

That sand dune is one of the more amazing things I've seen. From the highway it looks rather unsubstantial, but when you actually get up close to it, it is absolutely HUGE. Damn thing moves around constantly too. I can't recall just how much movement it has, but I do remember being very impressed when I was reading about it. We're talking about a small mountain moving around at will (well, the wind's will.) It is definitely Yahoo City out there though. The motocross bunch just love it. Lots of things with wheels and blue smoke pouring out of 'em all over the dune. I saw guys catching just incredible amounts of airtime and then eating sand BIGTIME. Great entertainment.
