&&&¨&&&¨¨¨ IMAGINE IF YOU WILL, A LUSH BLUEBERRY ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨
¨¨&&¨¨&¨¨& SPRUCE FOREST, WITH ROLLING HILLS AND ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&&&
¨&¨&¨&&¨&¨ KNEE-DEEP UNDERBRUSH. ¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨¨&
&&&&&¨&&&& ¨¨¨¨¨&&¨&&
¨¨¨¨&&¨¨¨¨ THE GROUND IS SOFT. LEAVES IN ALL OF ¨¨¨¨&¨&&¨¨
¨¨¨&¨&¨¨¨¨ THE SEVEN STAGES OF DECOMPOSITION ARE ¨¨¨&&&¨&¨¨
¨¨&&&&¨¨¨¨ PACKED LOOSELY TOGETHER... SOMETIMES ¨¨&¨¨&&&¨¨
¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨ THERE ARE ROCKS. BIGGER BOULDERS PEEK ¨&&¨&¨¨&¨¨
&&¨¨&&¨¨¨¨ OUT OF THE HILLS. &¨&&&¨&&¨¨
¨&¨&¨&¨¨¨& &&¨¨&&¨&¨&
&&&&&&¨¨&¨ THERE COULD BE, SOMEWHERE IN THE DEPTHS ¨&¨&¨&&&&&
¨¨¨¨¨&¨&&¨ OF IT ALL, A CREVICE FILLED WITH WATER. &&&&&¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨&&&¨&¨ BIRD CHERRIES AT THE EDGES, DIPPING ¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨&¨¨&&&& THEIR LONG FINGERS BENEATH THE SURFACE. ¨¨¨&&¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨&&¨&¨¨¨¨ WATER LILIES, MAYBE. THE WATER IS ¨¨&¨&¨¨¨¨¨
¨&¨&&&¨¨¨& YELLOW-GREEN WITH POLLEN, AND INSECTS ¨&&&&¨¨¨¨¨
&&&¨¨&¨¨&¨ ARE SWARMING ABOVE THE SURFACE. &¨¨¨&¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨&¨&&¨&&¨ &¨¨&&¨¨¨¨&
¨&&&¨&&¨&¨ WATER STRIDERS, MOSQUITOS, &¨&¨&¨¨¨&&

&¨¨¨&¨&&¨¨ IN THIS CASE WE WOULD USE DEET, &¨&¨¨¨¨¨&¨
&¨¨&&&¨&¨& OR DIETHYLTOLUAMIDE AS IT'S ALSO CALLED. &&&¨¨¨¨&&&
&¨&¨¨&&&&& ¨¨&¨¨¨&¨¨¨
&&&¨&¨¨¨¨¨ DEET SHOULD BE APPLIED TO YOUR SKIN. ¨&&¨¨&&¨¨&
¨¨&&&¨¨¨¨& YOU SHOULD COVER ALL SKIN THAT IS TO BE &¨&¨&¨&¨&¨
¨&¨¨&¨¨¨&& EXPOSED TO AIR. IT'S OK TO GET SOME IN &&&&&&&&&¨
&&¨&&¨¨&¨¨ THE EYES. RUB UNTIL IT FEELS RIGHT, ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨
¨&&¨&¨&&¨& UNTIL THE SKIN FEELS GOOD. LET IT SOAK ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&&&
&¨&&&&¨&&¨ IN. ¨¨¨¨¨¨&¨¨&
&&¨¨¨&&¨&& ¨¨¨¨¨&&¨&¨
¨&¨¨&¨&&¨¨ YOU'VE NOW BECOME POISONOUS. ¨¨¨¨&¨&&&&
