reynardoFor those that don't know, my family is not always tolerant of my interest in geology, and more specifically volcanoes.

lederhosen: Is it a volcano?
Me; No...
da_norvegicus: Is it about geology?
Me: It might be. But it's not a volcano. It's a magma chamber whose magma never broke the surface, so it never became a volcano.
lederhosen: It's a volcano.
Me: But it hadn't been born yet!
da_norvegicus: A volcano is a volcano from the point of conception.
Room dissolves in arguments and laughter
