    3. the thread will remain, but the posts that deviate from the topic will be relocated or deleted.

This article has a pretty good image linked to it. I do question the deepwater horizon drill hole. I can't believe it is almost as deep as the kola borehole. Is it?

Today’s graphic, another fantastic piece by xkcd, is a unique and entertaining look at everything from Lake Superior’s ice encrusted shoreline down to blackest, inhospitable trench (which today bears the name of the expedition that first discovered it).
