We were cleaning up/out my father-in-laws place and he had a subscription to Nat Geo. August 2009 featured Yellowstone's volcanic features. Cover photo was an arial view of Grand Prismatic Spring. I have partial eidetic memory, particularly for images/sounds and that striking cover photo stuck. Third image in Rufus series had the tone/texture/patterns that matched the hot springs.

3 men banned from Yellowstone after trying to cook chicken in geyser
The group was found with two whole chickens in a burlap sack in one of the park's scalding-hot thermal features.

And I quote (again), "I think that the problem with some people is that they are so stupid that they have no idea how stupid they are…"

These are people that need to be registered as being banned from breeding so as to eliminate their stupidity from the gene pool.

Serious:
Soon as you can, find yourself a picture/news report of today about:
chrome-ish-like monolith standing alone and 12' tall amidst a Utah desert landscape
Just now found .

If the other dimensions of the monolith are such that a prime number ratio is achieved, this might be interesting, :wink: :wink:

Looks more like brushed stainless steel and it appears to be three sided in cross section. Probably some kind of work of art.

I hope it's more than mere art.

Reminds me more of the stones in the Fifth Element than the monolith from 2001.
