Corse, us broadband weenies have no problems. Loved the atomic furnace room, Padre. It's just so ... um, think of a word. Buster Crabbe started life as a weightlifter, didn't he?

Saint Helens, yes. The Native Americans named it before George Vancouver did. They called it "Louwala-clough" which means "smoking mountain." They were onto something.

Maybe by "Louwala-clough", the natives wanted to say - a mountain that "coughs lava".
