Skimming through the excerpt, that's what it seemed like....

Maybe it's a slow news day in realm of 'science alerts(!)'.

Does the hot blog go all the way down to Australia? It's summer down there.

Nobody gottime fordat.

hot blob I meant to type, not blog.

Maybe it is a bit bloggy, though.

Two! And some yogurt! And I dropped my three youngest children at full-day “camp” at our city recreation center.

Basically, it’s saying that the hot rock might turn into a volcano in 2 million years.

Or not.

Yeah, hardly worth the click.

dropping children???

Did you drop them on purpose?

Like my own younger brother used to say about his own head -- "not a vital organ!"

Handed them over gently ... but I’ve often observed you can’t hurt one of our Offspring with anything short of nukes.

hey, I was re-reading the first chapter of Genesis and I wonder if that big zit is how the plates started moving around in the first place to separate the waters?

Gen 1:9 Then God said, “Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so. 10 God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good.

I also noticed that He said it was good after certain days but at the end of the 6th day He said it was VERY good. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts, eh?

Same story, different source, Forbes ....

Large Pool Of Molten Rock Was Just Found Rising Beneath New England

Spent some time in VT. After seeing some of their rock, this story doesn't surprise me.
