Folks,
    Another oddity. It is reported by AP in the NY Times (Metro
Section), Thursday, Dec. 16, 1999, "An Unexpected View of Lake Erie's
Bottom". Reportedly, "the floor of Lake Erie was in Plain view from
Buffalo on Tuesday as water shifted from New York and toward Ohio in a
rare phenomenon. The cause was a seiche ... , a condition in which
strong sustained winds cause large amounts of water to move from one
part of a body of water to another." Read the story for details. Richard
