    Technically the Earth would be in the strip every day, lol. But anyway, love the strip!

    This is why the moon is slowly drifting away from the earth.

    And if some TV documentary is to be believed, it was the resulting giant tides that swept over entire continents, leeching out minerals into the sea, making them salty.

    My understanding was that oceans were necessary for the creation of granite and therefore of the continents, so thousand-foot tides might easily have washed over them. But then, all I know is what I see on TV and in 50 years of reading Scientific American. (Another TV documentary said that one of the Alvarezes had repudiated the iridium/meteor/dinosaur connection and had decided on a less catastrophic explanation, but I’ve never seen confirmation, including in Wikipedia.)
