>Although they appear solid, the composition of some ocean >floor rocks is up to 15 percent water.

So in other words, the headline is misleading. It should read "large section of rock that has a fair bit of water in it has been discovered". Clearly anyone who read the first few sentences had a vision of free-flowing water sloshing around.

Listen, sometimes I post stories without reading the entire article, and I don't need someone like you to come around and ruin my daydreams for me. Here I was thinking I could team up with Aquaman and make contact with the previously undiscovered civilization that had developed in this underground ocean. Who knows, they might have even treated me like a king. Now, thanks to you, its ruined for me. Hope you're happy.

Sure, but the rock layers containing the water are 500 miles thick, which represents a lot of water.
