But... the real source of "Stinkin' Desert" is a Firesign Theater Skit. Don't remember it all. Just ...stuck.     Truth is, it's the most beautiful place in the world, but we'd like all the "ferners" to think otherwise. The growth is staggering, and they love to impose their out-of-state ideals and stuff on our area. Changes it, and then all the charm they came here for is gone. Oh well. Later, Guy</html>
