Talk:Devil's stovepipe

Terminology?

I'm a little concerned that this term is unique to the work of Kesey. Some brief Googling doesn't turn up any references that don't mention Kesey. Anyone know another name for this phenomenon? ^L_Wizard @ 22:01, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

I second the concern about possibly missing the correct term, but will also point out that the first external link (the second Google hit) uses the term without any mention of Ken. A bit more googling turns up http://outdoors.webshots.com/photo/2757031870061291540oFjQuo The term could also be tied up with Kesey if the phenomenon were rare enough that Kesey is the readiest available reference when describing it.

Picture

Where in the picture is there a Devil's Stovepipe? I don't see one in that picture. It just looks like trees. Closer inspection shows that there are trees and sand. Why is this picture with this article?RSido (talk) 06:15, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

I added some more description to the caption, but the real answer is that there aren't any pictures of devil's stovepipes handy so a picture of dunes and forest seemed like the next best thing. If you think it detracts you're welcome to remove it. blahaccountblah (talk) 05:54, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
