We are as far away from the desert that one can be: being in the temporal coastal rainforest biome... LOL! Well, you're partially right; I was researching this topic for a novel (my trilogy about a galactic detective--soon to be published hopefully) but that research was a while ago. I came across it again because of my previous post on sailing rocks here: http://sfgirl-thealiennextdoor.blogspot.com/2008/08/sailing-racetrack-playa-of-death-valley.html<BR/><BR/>All I know is that I now really want to go visit the sands of Oman!Nina Munteanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00311070435293186699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8584840770244929.post-54214472027885334252008-09-08T17:03:00.000-07:002008-09-08T17:03:00.000-07:00How did you happen to come across "singing sands"?...How did you happen to come across "singing sands"?
