Those dark dune spots represent the best chance of finding microbial life on Mars, actually. The seasonal pattern they follow can't be attributed to any non-organic means, the way they begin underneath the ice in the Martian spring and then spread until they reach the surface, then recede as the Martian winter approaches.
I have a whole paper on it written by a bunch of Hungarian scientists that's pretty interesting if anyone cares. I can email it if somebody wants it.

- Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.
