^  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.

Tourniquet and a bone saw.
Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring—it was peace. — Milan Kundera


The gift which I am sending you is called a dog, and is in fact the most precious and valuable possession of mankind

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.
