    Default Sand! Is civilization slipping through "It's fingers"?

    I first started to read concerning articles about our voracious appetite for this naturally occurring item. I always knew we used a lot of it but wow the increasingly large annual volumes are starting to create havoc. We should be paying closer attention to this issue.

    This OP-ED really started a search for more information for me.

    Then this was an interesting article from last year.

    More recently another OP-ED that things are getting worse not better.

    As you would expect both sides are lining up in this one. Anybody concerned?
