Clark needs to stick with what he knows. A high-school geometer could
tell you from the shadow lengths that those can't be banyan trees.
These are vast fields of /cannabis/ /sativa/ .

Not very soon if ever, bayan trees needs LOTS of water and humide, that's
why they grow good in HAWAII not the cold dryness of mards.

There are those who believe that life here, began out there, far across the
universe, with tribes of humans, who may have been the forefathers of the
Egyptians, or the Toltecs, or the Mayans. Some believe that they may yet be
brothers of man, who even now fight to survive, somewhere beyond the
heavens.
