Well done, Jason! Many of us would not have known of these movies but for
your posting the URL. Thanks.

Check out the new various movies of multiple simultaneous twisters from
the surface of Mars.

(I know dust-devils have been known for some time, but don't miss these
new ones, they're pretty neat. BTW, I originally thought this was too
O.T. to X-post in sci.astro.seti, but then I thought perhaps the
astrobiology folks might like to see them; they might make a good spore
propagation transport mechanism, even in such a thin atmosphere. It's
like L.A. in the "The Day After Tomorrow", but on Mars :^)
