I grew up in New England, and moved to Colorado, the most stunning difference to me was the complete lack of insects. No misquitos, no flies, nothing. I could leave the windows open at night.
I was told this was due to the lack of moisture. That makes sense to me. Misquitos need water to breed, flies probably need water to keep rotting shit moist to lay babies in, etc.
However I was watching a documentary on the North African campaign in WW2, and it talked about how the biggest issue the soldiers faced was the flies.
Where were these flies coming from? Isnt it an arid desert? What are these flies normally eating when human armies are not around to host them?

Checkmate Fibbonazi's, your number sequence is retarded and based on a lie. Doesn't even follow it's own rules. Go fuck yourself. Pic related is you.
>Brains are nice to have, but many people who seem not to have great IQs have done great things. At Bell Telephone Laboratories Bill Pfann walked into my office one day with a problem in zone melting. He did not seem to me, then, to know much mathematics, to be articulate, or to have a lot of clever brains, but I had already learned brains come in many forms and flavors, and to beware of ignoring any chance I got to work with a good man. I first did a little analytical work on his equations, and soon realized what he needed was computing. I checked up on him by asking around in his department, and I found they had a low opinion of him and his idea for zone melting. But that is not the first time a person has not been appreciated locally, and I was not about to lose my chance of working with a great idea—which is what zone melting seemed to me, though not to his own department! >Richard Hamming
