One abiding memory I have is visiting a desert in the Middle East. Sitting on top of a hill, looking over the flat landscape, there was no evidence of human habitation as far as the eye could see. More remarkable was the complete silence…, no wind, no sound of birds… nothing at all. The overwhelming impression was that I was in the middle of a huge stage. Sublime.
