Ironically, since we have been discussing bible versus nature, Live Science just posted this article.-It's kind of interesting you brought up the Red Sea. -The last I'd heard about that, was that they had strong suggestions that there was a mistranslation of "reed" to "red" sea. Apparently there's a region adjacent to the Red sea that was very very shallow--enough for people to cross. But marshy enough that chariots couldn't move. -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_Sea-The lack of archaeological evidence of chariots beneath the Red Sea leads me to put more backing behind the "Reed Sea" hypothesis. -Alternatively, I also know that low-tide events create "escape routes" as well. Down near Cabo San Lucas there's a "lover's point" you can go to, where you can walk to the area in the evening and then be "trapped" in a cove until the next tide.

\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
