I don’t he gets the movie really isn’t about “science”. It’s about philosophy, politics, religion, etc.

Seems to be a case of the ole " I can't see the forest, all these trees are in the fucking way!".

Which is kinda funny considering the books had a lot to do with ecology.

If you ever never seen the dunes of Florence, Oregon. It’s pretty cool. That’s where the dune idea came from. I’ve heard there are some ties to Salem since he lived there but I have not figured those out
