Greetings Don I am wondering about some of the other Plateau's out in the pacific that have larger areas and vertical sides, like the Manthiki, Ongtong Java, Solomon and others. Has there been drilling in these to determine if there is a geological crust there also like in the New Zealand Plateau? If so why has the moving pacific basin not swept these into the all consuming subduction zone?<g> Kamron
