You're right, JP. Another consideration is that the Sinai was also  
known as part of "Arabia" in ancient times and there were forests in  
the Sinai.

I still think we spend a disproportionate amount of time on this list  
talking about offbeat geographic theories that nobody takes seriously  
anyway. We should get back to the Hebrew text. But hey, maybe that's  
just me.
