The Dead Sea

The Dead Sea, Border of Israel and Jordan

I just heard that the Dead Sea is in danger as almost all of its water source, the Jordan River, is being diverted for irrigation. It's disappearing rapidly and there's talk of pumping in water from, I think, the Red Sea. Anyways, I love the idea of healing waters and crazy stuff like that, and this place has been all the rage in alternative medicines since biblical times. Plus, it'd be pretty sweet to read the paper floating around.
