I got a chuckle out of your substitution of “Sane” for “Sand” in your title/headline. Perhaps subconscious but unintended yet pointed given the subject?!?!
More like pre-coffee posting. We fixed it.
Hands Across The Sane? It’s even funnier because I know what you’re talking about. I doubt we’re all that sane.
I was chuckling when I noticed the replacement in your headline/title of “Sane” for “Sand.” Perhaps subconscious but unintended given the issues involved?!?!
