:49:02
That's where the first atomic bomb
was ever dropped.

:49:06
There are sand dunes in there.
:49:09
And that sand, it crawls.
It crawls over the roads.

:49:13
They're sweeping it all the time
to keep it from covering up the roads.

:49:18
It's growing sand.
:49:21
That sand grows.
:49:24
That desert runs out
an average of 14 feet a year.

:49:29
They've got graders.
They keep grading it off the road.

:49:34
There's graders out there all the time
grading that sand off the road.

:49:38
Pushing that sand back off
of those roads, where you get in there.

:49:42
Build new roads every day.
:49:44
Wind come in over that dry sand.
:49:47
It wraps up so deep by sand overnight.
:49:50
I reckon, it runs as high
as a telephone pole.

:49:54
Paid and went in there...
:49:56
and got where the white sand's at.
:50:03
We got us some white sand.
:50:05
I got a jar here where it grows in it.
:50:19
See now, I had just a little bit of this
in this jar whenever I brought it out.

:50:24
And now, you see, my jar is nearly full.
:50:27
It grows. It crawls.
:50:31
It crawls up the side of the jar, you see?
:50:33
I reckon it's gonna fill up this jar.
:50:35
In two more years, itwill fill up this jar.
:50:39
They say it grows 14 feet a year...
:50:41
out where the town
that Billy the Kid got Killed.

:50:45
They say itwill cover that town
in a year to come.

:50:48
This century, less than 100 years...
:50:52
- that desertwill eat it up.
- Itwill cover that town.
