The Oracle at Delphi relied on mild asphyxiation and from natural gas coming up from a fissure in a cave, and then priests “interpreting” the babbling as a prophecy.

Elder Millenials and young Gen X can have all 3 if they grew up near a busy highway in a home built before the 1980s.

Yep, I did mean that. Thanks!

It’s supposed to be an emergency solution.

However, megawatts of power generation isn’t exactly something that can be thrown together in a couple weeks. It can take months to stabilize a grid to the pint the ship can disengage.

Edit: mega, not kilo. I was thinking too small.

Isn’t it that rapping cartoon dog from the PS1?

The Red Sea is actually just another rift valley along the same edge of the plate. It just filled in with water first.

A friend of mine went from a school in the US to a French school, and when she said there were 7 continents, everyone including the teacher made fun of her.

Dogmatism goes both ways.

We separate Europe, Asia, and Africa because the Ancient Greeks invented the boundaries and terms, and the Romans kept them up.

They lived in the area, so for them, these boundaries were just names given to land on either side of major bodies of water: the Nile, the Black Sea and Rioni river, and the Mediterranean.

They considered Egypt part of Asia for a while, and anything south of the Med as the landmass “Libya.” The Romans kept up the same definitions as maps expanded, and just extrapolated from there.
