You can hear the bones humming

How did we know we were human? We made music and devoured our own. The juniper tree's roots run deep. I am waiting for the flute that, blown, cries out in the voice of an ancient child.

There is salt on Enceladus.

Ah, thank you! But it's the piece about the flutes I wasn't able to get at. I'm sure I can get it, somehow, through NYU's library--I'm simply less accustomed to doing so for Nature than I am for archives like JSTOR and such.

I've read about the flutes in the usual media--AP and such through Yahoo. Very interesting.

Thank you! That's an interesting piece--I'd not seen the bit about the replica having been tried out.
