Marian Posts 3065	Or, the parting of the Red Sea. Thought I'd start a new thread for this because there's several important implications. One of the most interesting is that this is a way to study how the ocean floor rifts without having to go down to the ocean floor. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33605604/ns/technology_and_science-science/ -- "Know the truth and the truth shall make you odd."

One of the must-sees on the Chain of Craters Road on the Big Island is the Southern Rift. It's where, eventually, an enormous chunk of the island will break away. Whether to form an offshore island, or to just tumble into the sea, I'm not sure. But it's pretty eerie, made all the scarier when tourists let their children climb down into what is obviously unstable ground. -- "A thagizer? What's that do? Hey, what's this button for? Uh-oh. Sorry about that, man. It'll grow back, right?"
