Love stuff like that, putting geography in relative terms.

This IS cool, John.

(...btw, I thought the little inside joke the artist added with the little stick-figures of David Bowie and Freddie Mercury walking on the Abyssal Plain and "Under Pressure" was pretty clever)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

I enjoyed it too, thanx John. I liked the note about the ships being longer than the water was deep they sunk in.

Liked that, topical as well as Titanic sank 100 years ago in a day or two. It was alright when it left here.

And I liked the "The Abyss" 'Don't Stare' comment. Jacqueline Bisset in an underwater wet t-shirt contest? Always a fave!
