Daily Dose
From Assembling California, by John McPhee
MORE RECENT YEARS
"The mobile tectonics of more recent years are a good deal easier to see. If you look on a world map at Antarctica, South America, Africa, and Australia, you virtually see them exploding away from one another. You can reassemble Gondwana in your mind and then watch it come apart."
From page 210
