...said Redux might inspire vivid dreams, and was he ever right! As I was sleeping, I saw myself tooling around in a Volkswagen Beetle. Suddenly it jerked into reverse.

Finally, the hot water gushes back up in murky clouds that cool rapidly, dumping dissolved minerals, including zinc, copper, iron, sulfur compounds and silica, onto the ocean floor. The material hardens into chimneys, known as "black smokers" (one, nicknamed Godzilla, towers 148 ft. above the bottom...
