This dust from the Sahara is a yearly event and I have no doubt that
some of it ends up off the East Coast.
Even with windows closed and masking tape on the seams, I'd wake up in
the middle of the night, coughing and choking, in Guinea-Bissau when the
Harmattan arrived.

Wondering, if this takes place again, will this semi conductive material give us
a leg up on propagation to Africa, and beyond ? (;>))
