Look what I just stumbled across by complete "accident".

Southern Illinois is known as Little Egypt. There is a place there called Cairo that is 9.11 square miles. There is a musician named Pokey La Farge who wrote an album called "There's Something in the Water" that is clearly about what we are talking about right now. I haven't listened to every song yet but listen to the lyrics to the songs Cairo, Illinois and Underground:

• Cairo, Illinois:

If it's not where you're from But what you had where you happened to come from More or less I'd say that I had none Eatin' and drinkin' would be all that I do And if it's not what you do But what you got, then I got less And out of loving or playing, I like loving the best Now baby, take me with you when you go

Take me to the bridge where the rivers collide Down in Cairo, Illinois on a Saturday night I might jump in Everyone wants to hear a song That helps the day seem half as long But I'm trying I want you to see that I'm trying, babe

If you've lost your ticket to paradise Or you spent your money for the bus It's cold coffee in the morning, slow trumpet at dusk Now baby, catch that old midnight train

/ I want you to hear that I'm trying, babe

Down by the levee Where you swear God's got you shamed Just cast your doubts and the mistakes that you've made Into that old wishing well, well well well well Don't the river look lonesome at twilight? Well, there ain't no looking back It's just a broken fiddle and an old tote sack In the morning you'll be going south

I want you to feel like I'm trying, babe, oh yes, I want you to know that I'm trying

• Underground:

A hurricane is brewing in the East While forest fires rage in the West But when the New Madrid Line, breaks our poor spine That's it, there isn't anymore

Tornadoes twisting in the South While a blizzard blows down from the North When them old tectonic plates, set off that big earthquake Cities will crumble from shore to shore

So get ready, get ready Listen everybody, can't you hear that sound? From the underground, can't you hear that sound From the underground, can't you hear that sound

The end won't come from disease And it won't be from any nuclear bomb The ground beneath our feet, will rise up to meet The fire in the sky, becoming one

Is this what causes this part of the Earth to "point" at the center of the galaxy?

If there is a God, he's of the land And he does not favor any man Father Time has the final say, but it doesn't matter anyway Mother Nature has made a deal and now it's done

From the underground, can't you hear that sound, can't you >hear that sound From the underground, can't you hear that sound, comin' up >from the underground
