Ok, which of you messed up the wind incantations?

Edit: Because you messed up big enough for NASA to notice—

I think we crossed wires.  At the same time bdoomed was going after his neighbor I was trying to curse Kibitzer with a bad case of jock itch.  We ended up with a sand storm in Australia, and I'm sure bdoomed's neighbor is now walking funny.

Yeah you kinda missed me dude. The dust storms were in Brisbane and Sydney. I'm in Melbourne (1200 kms / 750 miles south of Sydney, which is a further 1200 kms / 750 miles south of Brisbane.) Better luck next time.

(scratch, scratch). Hmm. That's funny...

Come on, like I'm supposed to know Australian geography.  It's just a bunch of sand surrounded by a little rock in the middle of some water.

On top of elephants, with some really weird jumpy things and rivers made of sand. And a deceptively high tower.
