Sure. I don't know exactly how blueschist gets to the surface, since it requires low heat but incredibly high pressures to form.

It clearly forms near the bottom of the ocean.


I got something for you!

If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally ********, and she had syphilis.
Would you recommend that she have an abortion?

How about....

It is time to elect a new world leader, and your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three leading candidates:

Candidate A:
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologers.
He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8-10 martinis a day.

Candidate B:
He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whisky every evening.

Candidate C:
He's a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any extramarital affairs.












Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt

Candidate B is Winston Churchill

Candidate C is Adolph Hitler


Hahaha, google search tricky questions.

Not really, seeing as how plenty of metamorphic rocks (ex: serpentinite) come from the bottom of the ocean, specifically at divergent plate boundaries. The problem with your theory was that, while the heat there isn't too strong, there isn't nearly enough pressure to metamorph a slate into blueschist; of course, that's just one of the many reasons that you were wrong.

Of course I knew all that already, I was testing you.

You'd think that if you knew how to use a camera like that, you'd be able to figure out how to rotate the pictures so that everyone doesn't have to turn their head 90 degrees to look at them.

Plus resize them a little bigger/link to the bigger versions. The thumbnails look pretty good though.

Beerman, do you think you'd be able to get a DSLR? You could probably find a used Rebel body only for about $400, plus maybe $200 for a flash and the 50mm 1.8 prime is a really good lens for the price ($80)

Is there anyone here like me...

You know, steals your parents camera and has too run like hell and then once you get to the trails you have to take the picture when the person is still pedaling towards the jump to get them on the LAST set...

If my job would give me my goddamn raise, I could buy a Nikon D200, a couple of portable flashes, and all the lenses that I'd ever need in about a month and a half.

That'd be nice. Just curious, any particular reason for going with Nikon? I've heard the wide glass is better than Canon's, but as far as wide zooms go, the Canon 10-22 is supposed to be amazing.

Any ideas for which lenses you'd be getting?
