Since the area is volcanic terrain, my guess is that it is the remnants of a volcanic vent. Using Google Earth and tilting to see the relief, it sure looks like one too. -- Richard Kowalski Full Moon Photography IMCA #1081 --- On Wed, 4/14/10, countde...@earthlink.net countde...@earthlink.net

inform anyone who contacts you in the future. Do not send it. I don't want it. If you do send it the US Post Office considers it a gift and I am under no obligation to give you one cent for it. That might help keep your mailbox from being fouled with crap just a small bit. -- Richard Kowalski
