Me too. Very cool. I also liked the little poem you viciously snipped ;-) Those
dunes really do rock. They flow nicely.

Just in case you do not remember who John Stachowicz was...

Johannes J. Stachowicz was born in the ghetto of Warsaw. He is the
single survivor of a family of 17 (his parents, 3 brothers, 11 sisters
all died in Auschwitz). As a toddler John was adopted by Theo and
Hetty Brahms in Sweet, North Carolina. John grew up as 'normal'
teenager: he went to war in Korea (even made it to lieutenant), and
set up a business in tobacco in Charlotte, NC. December 24 Eve 1965
his parents told him he was 'just' an adopted child of the Brahms's
and Stachowicz was his real name. In 1968 John sold his tobacco shops
and went to Palestine. During the Yom Kippur War John lost his right
arm.

After this dreadful event mister Stachowicz dedicated his life to the
arts. John was a three times winner of the 'ASCII-artist of the year'
competition (1978, 1982 and 1984). He also took part in the 'Ceuta to
Congo Camel Contest', a camel endurance race over 5000 miles. In
September 2001 John Stachowizc was found drowned in the oasis Al
Khamalla near the Algerian and Niger border.

With respect to his deeds the Algerian-Niger border people named the
three hills after him...
