ZANE: I don't know if this was said yet, but whilst we were at the dog park yesterday, we had an encounter with a Blue Tick Coon Hound and her furmom. The hound wanted to chase the ball or something, so it let out a very characteristic "AaarrRROOOoooOOOooo".
I fell in love immediately.
Awwww We used to have a search and rescue dog here that was a hound. I loved being on searches when SARdog-1 was on the way... hehehehehe Elvis AaaaaRRRoooOOOOoOOOoOOo from the moment the truck turned on until he got to the scene! You could hear him coming from a ways away!!!! He was a cool dog!!!!

As Chris said, yes, it's just that clear. Believe it or not, there's no Wiki entry for it. The water comes from a subterranean aquifer through a crack in the volcanic strata below. Due to the high acidic content found with aquifers in volcanic basalt and the water maintaining an almost constant 34ºF temp, no life can be sustained, thus resulting in a completely biological free space. It really is amazing to see.
oh man!!!!!
