    BTW those stones are just naturally jointed. It is extremely common and entirely natural; as the formation gets "unloaded" (that is the material on top of it gets eroded away) pressure on the rocks decreases so they will naturally start decompressing ever so slightly causing a fairly regular system of jointing in the rocks. Natural weathering then expands those joints making it look exactly like the stupid pictures in the film.

      "Atlantis" Lyrics

      The continent of Atlantis was an island
      Which lay before the great flood
      In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
      So great an area of land, that from her western shores
      Those beautiful sailors journeyed to the South
      And the North Americas with ease
      In their ships with painted sails.
      To the east, Africa was a neighbor,
      Across a short strait of sea miles.

      The great Egyptian age is but a remnant
      Of the Atlantian culture.
      The antediluvian kings colonized the world;
      All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
      In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.

      Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.
      On board were the Twelve:
      The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist, the magician,
      And the other so-called Gods of our legends,
      Though Gods they were.
      And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind,
      Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new . . .
      Hail Atlantis!

      Way down below the ocean, where I wanna be, she may be . . .
      Way down below the ocean, where I wanna be, she may be . .

        I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

              Guess we can stop 'believing' now... (Didn't know they didn't know who built Easter Island's giant statues in the 60s, BTW.)

                I'm not sure how pandas tie into this, but no, I do not believe in Atlantis. Garbled accounts of Minoan Crete. Sucks to Atlantis.
