This is freaky, because in the movie "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" the
indentations on the Martian surface that are observed from Earth as
"canals" are...a series of sinkholes over a volcanically created cave
system (with some still active volcanos in them in the movie).


So -- what you're saying, Pat, is that Opportunity *really* needs to be
on the lookout for a cute, personality-filled monkey (CPFM)?

All I've seen thus far from Meridiani along those lines, though, has
been a bland, pseudo-fiberfilled bunny (BPFB).
