On Blue's Waters, Chapter 10 "The End": "I know places in the sea where there are walls like those," Seawrack told me. Her voice was hushed. "'Underwater' is what you say." They've found an area with low curving walls of masonry. There are shards of broken glass around. Through one direction, the glass seems to intensify light, through the other direction it blocks it. Sounds like handy stuff to make a greenhouse from. There's also some talk about plant life inside and outside the circle and how it seems to be different ages.

Could a global flood also have put the structures underwater?

:) Or should I be reacting with horror instead at the possible resurrection of the topic I think you're hinting at...

That's chapter 8, at least in my book. But I don't think that one side of the glass blocks light. I suspect you may be thinking of Crowley's Engine Summer.

Gwern, I actually don't at all believe that Blue is Urth. I know that's what your thinking! ;) But, I think a global flood on two planets does indicate some sort of 'pattern' to things.... On Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 9:00 PM, Matthew Groves <matthewalangroves at gmail.com

Couldn't the pattern be that GW wrote these book and even he only had a finite number of themes and ideas? So stuff get's repeated and recycled... Sacrilege? Also, can we please restart the rumour that the big skeleton above Bas-Lag in Perdido Street Station is Abaia?????? ????? Stuart ????

The accusation, Sir, is that you believe Blue to Ushas---not that you believe it to be Urth. Answer the question, heretic, or the squassations shall commence anew!
