God.. those photos are so creepy. I can't imagine holding something like that, I'd be affraid it attack me, dig its way into my chest and shove its tenatacles into my brain.. HELP! HELP!
Flash back!! Yes I remember that G.I Joe episode. That's when both the Joes and Cobras were trying to fight the tube worms. Guess we are really old.
munkle, you're correct...we do know more about Mars than the Deep!
parrothead, you're also correct. They couldn't have been washed up in the tsunami. The pressure down there is so great that they "pop" when reached to the surface. Special high pressured equipments are needed to collect them from the deep and bring them to the surface.
One question I have about the ocean is from Finding Nemo. It's about the East Australian Current, or EAC. Does this actually exist? For instance, is it formed by the mixture of warm and cold water? Or is this just a Disney thing.

I am not positive, but I am pretty sure the EAC is real. It would be much like the Gulf Stream in the Atlantic. That runs from the Caribbean to the British Isles. I dont know how major currents like that are formed, I would have to ask my coworkers involved in oceanography about that.
