^  Heh.  <lecherous grin>  "C'mon, honey... the veil is just a symbolic denial of your base urges.  You know you want to, don't you?"

I remember reading it in either the full book form or as the serial and not finishing it.

Dune as a magazine serial was published in Analog, at least partly in a brief stretch of time when the magazine was experimenting with a larger format.  I had a couple issues from that period, inc. one with Dune, with John Schoenherr illustrations.

In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

Too much effort.

Leave them where they are, reopen the road, and let nature physics take its course.

Right... that's just a recipe to seriously screw up the front end alignment on some poor innocent person's car.

Clean the trash off the road before you reopen it.
