Earth Sciences & Geology - February 2007

I recently drove across canada and when passing by Lake Superior noticed it was not frozen along the coast. I was on the highway from Wawa to Sault Ste Marie. There were huge waves that you could surf, and it had a slight yellow tinge to it, much like you would see in salt water areas. If I hadn't known any better I would have thought it was salt water! Is there something that happens in areas that would cause this to happen? It was -52 at the time I was passing so I can't imagine why.. it wouldn't be frozen.

I know it has to do with these small "plate" things with holes that they swirled around the sand and gold in, but wouldn't the gold fall through just like the sand? Did the tiny flakes of gold float because they were so small?

Face it, without new breakthroughs in medicine, more people would die from diseases, and then there wouldn't be the need for so much of the stuff that causes global warming. So if we quit having medical research, we could reverse global warming. I realize that this idea is ridiculous, but so are a lot of the other scenarios people like Al Gore have come up with.

Since a week we are working with our new Magellan Explorist 210 rum - and I think, we generally know what we're doing...But we want to create a basic map of our property with it (marking paths, house, pond, altitudes) The unit displays all this, - we marked POIs, and also the routes are visible - and also after we powered it off and on again, all the data is there. So, it has to be stored somewhere. We can also access the GPS data from our PC, but there is only a table with data -and if we transfer this data into the Mapsend Lite Software, the POIs spread over the whole US. How can we use the data to get the map we need? Thanks!!!!
