    Wow, its crazy that the actual tectonic plates themselves move faster than this colony can move. It's like the entire species is a moss colony. It makes me think of the difference between stagnant life forms, moving life forms, groups of life, stagnant life groups, and moving life groups. Changing from relatively nonmoving species to moving speices is kind of a big change, even if the individual life forms themselves could move either way

    Those crabs waving their arms around the vents look like they are at a Beatles concert and "Hey Jude!" is playing. I never wanted to see a video of that so badly right now,.

    The irony is that Yeti's in reality are most often reported to be brown in color and live in the valleys of the Himalaya and only venture on the snow covered mountains to cross from one valley into another.
