looking over the limb of the planet, there is that stratovolcano, the ninth most dangerous stratovolcano on planet Earth. Just beyond the limb of the Earth, actually, that's why you can see it, because if the ground were flat over there, it would be behind the edge. It'd be down below where you can't see it, but because it is two and a half miles or four kilometers high, a tall over there on that spot of the Earth, you can see it sticking out. There it is. You know, the Earth is not flat. In fact, over by Mount Rainier, by Tohoma, it's actually cone-shaped, a dimple, a dimple, and the otherwise spreroidal uniformity. Do you know that on the scale of, say, a billiard ball, the Earth is not just as smooth as a billiard ball. It's like a thousand times smooth Earth.
