Brothers apart?
Gold and lead are both forged in supernovae and are but a few subatomic particles apart in the periodic table. So why is there so much more of one than the other?

Underground line
On a March visit to the North Carolina seashore, I encountered this tableau (see photo) of two types of markings on an otherwise pristine sand dune. One of them seems to be a trail left in the surface by a passing arthropod. The other has a mound-like relief and it appears to have been made by the sand being pushed upwards from below. The mounds' height and width are generally uniform along their length, at perhaps 1 and 1.5 centimetres, respectively; there are branches at several points; and nowhere do there seem to be openings to the surface. Does anyone have an explanation?
