...glacier. It is still as shallow as nine feet in parts, and 300 feet at its deepest; one fisherman's tale has it that a ship's crew was able to play baseball on a shoal after a storm. The Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current converge at the site and circulate a hearty brew of nutrients on which plankton thrive and proliferate.

When finally captured last August, Berkowitz explained that he received orders to kill via a black Labrador retriever. The messages actually came, he explained, from a 6,000-year-old demon reincarnated as Berkowitz's next-door neighbor, Sam Carr. He even may have been, in addition to his killings, a mass arsonist. Introduced in evidence at the hearing were the murderer's diaries listing...
