Hi John,

For my real def, I'll go with what's actually the definition of loess, a
soil structure common in parts of the Netherlands but hopefully not
common enough in the rest of the world:

A loamy deposit formed by wind, usually yellowish and calcareous,
common in Europe and Asia.

(I edited the definition found on dictionary.com to remove the
Mississippi Vallye where, apparently, loess also can be found).

Cheers,
Hugo

Hi, Hugo!

Sounds good to me! (P.S.: We've got loess, too.)
