    that rock killed 30 people.
    ok, no, the rock didn't kill 30 people, the idiot who was commanding the ship (and flew the scene after crashing a 115.000 tons ship) kill the people.

Friday Rocks #37: Porphyroclastic Ultramylonite

[caption id="attachment_572" align="aligncenter" width="610"] Feldspar porphyroclasts in the ultramylonite of the Pofadder Shear Zone[/caption] Porphyoclasts are deformed crystals found in a metamorphic rock. In a mylonite weaker minerals deform though crystalplastic processes and form a "toothpaste" texture. Stronger minerals will try to resist the deformation, but may break and stretch along with the weaker minerals. As the weak minerals recrystallize, they will flow around the remnant stronger minerals.

It's a great article, go check it out. This article reminded me of a time in the 4th grade. Our class was learning about dinosaurs. I was talking with a friend about how dinosaurs were millions of years old. He replied with "but the Earth is only 6,000 years old." I can't remember exactly what my response was, but I do remember giving him a quizzical look. Being in elementary school, we weren't given a proof of how we know the age of the Earth. I accepted it on faith that the teacher was telling the truth, and probably on the fact that dinosaurs and rocks are really old and really COOL (thanks, Dad and ,uhh, probably Bill Nye, too). Hmm, now that I think about it, I...
