The site guitarist posted shows that this happened in the Pacific back in 2006. but none the less, awesome it certainly was. What a wonderful thing to have witnessed! Thanks Pinky. I hadn't seen these before. Not such a rare occurrence though. Remember the new island that formed off of Iceland a few years ago? The Hawaiian islands are growing as I type. Its a personal quirk, but I always try to see myself as being on a living planet with all of its uncertanties of earthquakes and volcanic activity. We are always fascinated by the idea of visiting other "planets". We forget that we are on one that is teeming with alien life forms.
