"Vening Meinesz (1959) analyzed the spherical harmonics of the Earth's topography up to the thirty-first order. The peak
shown in the values from the third to fifth harmonic would correlate very nicely
with mantle-size convection currents; cells would have the approximate diameter of 3000 to 6000 km in cross section (the other horizontal dimension might
be 10,000-20,000 km, giving them a banana-like shape)."

-- Harry H. Hess, "History of Ocean Basins" 1962

I can out-wash any "dishwashing" machine. no jet of water or chemical admixture can outmatch the awful power of "moving the rough side of the sponge back and forth across a sticky spot for like three minutes"

Young buck in the back yard grooming his tail and cudding on the fading November greenery. His antlers are just a few inches long, stout on top of a mulish face.

just found out that the "green monster" is only 37 feet tall and is, in fact, just a somewhat tall left-field wall rather than what I had ASSUMED, which is some sort of seventy- or eighty-foot-tall green monolith standing astride the outfield in silent judgement. smack-dab in the middle of center field, I thought that balls were pinging off that thing 24/7. just an immense obstacle that, by dint of sheer long-earned familiarity, received no attention. there is no magic in this world.

If only it weren't for the RIAA, imagine how many citrus wires there could be today. I would use rubygrapefruitwire.
