If you want to cool off in this brutal desert summer, you need to get up someplace higher, around 7,000 feet — the high-desert plateau around Los Alamos is real nice, at an elevation of 7,320'. Lots of people have fallen in love with the climate and clean dry air up there, such as  J. Robert Oppenheimer &amp; Gore Vidal &amp; William S. Burroughs. Burroughs was supposed to be a War Captain, following orders, but it never quite worked out that way. Instead, he would go to war with Human Language . . . using the weapon of the oppressor. With new war-march soundscapes by RedBlueBlackSilver. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/desertoracle">Thanks for supporting this advertising-free podcast on our Patreon page!</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/desertoracle" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/desertoracle</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
