and besides that, why shouldn't "Dawn", or "Mop 'n' Glo" have mountain ranges named after them, too? ;')

They do ... you just don't pronounce them correctly.

Also, when did "sky high" become a scientific term?

In high school, ever since the headline writer encountered his first bong.

When will we get a "news" release that there are volcanos in the Cascade mountain range?

Is there a major peak in the Cascade Range that isn't volcanic in origin?

Interesting stuff about Washington, careful of the million years conjectures stuck in there (they are obligatory).

I have a Ton (No Pun Intended) of Boulders in my neighborhood, size of VW's.

You could have a rock festival.

Interesting idea that boulders rode on top of glaciers. Should we ask how these boulders got on top of glaciers in the first place?

I grew up in Eastern Washington. Some of the most fascinating geology there is... You can find examples of just about anything there.

Driving Route 12 through the Palouse is magical - the landscape seems surreal.

Just an update/adding to the catalog -- no ping.
