- tribble222, on 02/14/2008, -3/+153Inaccurate. It's right next to a huge city. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=- ...
- Farik, on 02/14/2008, -1/+93MrBabyMan duping 30 day old articles that he dugg, tsk tsk!

http://www.digg.com/travel_places/Amazing_oasis_to ... - geekchic, on 02/14/2008, -1/+88As the blog doesn't say which country it is in - it is in Peru.
- sockpuppets, on 02/14/2008, -2/+52404: Oasis not found
- padrebuf, on 02/14/2008, -0/+27and it's not exactly in the middle of nowhere.
- Alegoo92, on 02/14/2008, -3/+21Thats the definition of an oasis. An "Oasis in the middle of nowhere" (esp. when nowhere = dessert) is redundant.
- McGrude, on 02/14/2008, -0/+18SOUTH America? Either or both the north american and south american continents can be referred to as America.
- MrSilverblood, on 02/14/2008, -0/+13Yeah, you're right. You can see the city behind it in the second picture. Still cool though. Looks like a great place for a nice relaxing vacation.
- muslax27, on 02/14/2008, -0/+13Yeah its like 3 miles from a major city.....but still very cool
- ryancalderoni, on 02/14/2008, -0/+12cool but how long until it's buried in shifting dunes?
- sgtbutterscotch, on 02/14/2008, -0/+12I just got an awesome idea. What if you have a desert where the sands are actually pudding. Mmm dessert desert.
- Perigren, on 02/14/2008, -4/+15Honestly who goes in the middle of that dessert and says to themselves "Wow this is really great why dont we build a 4 acre town here?"
- *jooloop*, on 02/14/2008, -2/+12I'm guessing the word "South" is implied
- Tiak, on 02/14/2008, -1/+10Inaccurate and misleading, but still insanely cool
- hextic, on 02/14/2008, -3/+10***** the RIAA.
- DontEatTheFish, on 02/14/2008, -1/+8you mean desert?
- delfin1, on 02/14/2008, -0/+7technically it is in the middle of nowhere...
- sgtbutterscotch, on 02/14/2008, -0/+7It did say it's "near" the city of Ica.
- k00k, on 02/14/2008, -0/+6I was expecting Liam and Noel
- purple, on 02/14/2008, -0/+6Wait until you fall.
- TomTruelle, on 02/14/2008, -0/+6are you broken?
- Rhino2, on 02/14/2008, -1/+7I NO, RITE!?
- acceleration, on 02/14/2008, -0/+6Mirror: http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:v57CR-xebIsJ: ...
- delfin1, on 02/14/2008, -0/+6i say that all the time.
- Phernoree, on 02/14/2008, -1/+6i was hoping this was the name of Oasis's new album
- rawrzzz, on 02/14/2008, -1/+6His link has a video.
- dannyboy3020, on 02/14/2008, -1/+6But it also said it's "in the middle of nowhere."
- emosewami, on 02/14/2008, -0/+4Morning Glory?
- delfin1, on 02/14/2008, -0/+4lets see, if a picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is many many pictures...then it is obvious that this argument is stupid.
- schtick01101, on 02/14/2008, -0/+4Call me blind but I believe what they are using are called "snow"boards. I am using the word snow loosely here though. Upside down skateboards would make for a very devastating ride.
- stevot, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3yeah, and you can even see the city in one of the pics too...
who would want sand in their asses? that doesn't sound like paradise to me... - xyqxyq, on 02/14/2008, -1/+4This title brought to you by the American Redundancy Department of Redundancy of America. It's hard to behold an oasis NOT in the middle of nowhere, because that would make it not an oasis.
- *jooloop*, on 02/14/2008, -1/+4Upside-down? How does that work? How about just taking off the trucks, and using a bit of duct tape?
- tehbored, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3Wow. Sandboarding. That looks freaking awesome.
- thelastcivilian, on 02/14/2008, -3/+6Dude, sandsurfing looks sweeeeet!
- Farik, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3I like a good duplicate from time to time, and this was one of them. I was just being slightly sarcastic and whoring a few anti-poweruser diggs.
- JaredXM, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3It's just a mirage.
- philipl411, on 02/14/2008, -1/+4people keep submitting the same story over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Digg sucks
- SamPollock, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3What are you talking about? In the first picture there is a huge city in the background.
- illspaz, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3http://www.umuc.edu/
- sloppjyoe890, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3What?
- cryonix, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3isn't an oasis by definition in the middle of nowhere?
- inactive, on 02/14/2008, -0/+3i thought the whole point of an oasis was that it was in the middle of nowhere
- Fokma, on 02/14/2008, -0/+2Over reacting much?
- overaction, on 07/14/2009, -0/+2That would be a delicious place to build a town. The citizens would be thrilled!
- XxLindyxX, on 02/14/2008, -0/+2The middle of Nowhere is the safest part of Nowhere.
- DrywallThief, on 02/14/2008, -0/+2I was curious about sandboarding so I looked it up on wikipedia ---
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandboarding
"An interesting fact about sandboarding is that it is said to have been invented in Egypt over 2 million years ago. The ancient Egyptians would ride down the large sand dunes on stone tablets to avoid falling or getting caught in the strong desert winds."
WTF? - Quickbreak, on 02/14/2008, -0/+2I will never desert my dessert in the desert.
- stillasleep00, on 02/14/2008, -1/+3I'd hate to be there when the wind picks up
- noahhoward, on 02/14/2008, -0/+2Seriously, I'd guess it's like hitting your skin with a belt sander
