Proof positive that even scientist still enjoy playing with LEGOS. This "super rogue wave" thing was pretty damn freak too though.

I'm not sure if listing 90 degrees to port is still considered "surviving" is it?
My oceanography class in college talked about rogue waves. It's a fascinating subject. On one hand I'd love to see such a massive force of nature in person. On the other, I'm pretty sure being that close would suck balls unless it was headed away from you.

Only if you're a Italian cruise ship.

wow, that analogy was awful.
while working on the ship M/V Liberty Star in 1995 we were hit by a "small " rouge wave that bent the 1.5" steel plate bulwark like a sheet of wet paper, shook the whole ship violently and caused a collective WTF from all the crew members. i cant imagine a large one not sinking a ship.
I should have been more specific, it was more of a "waves are cool" piggyback post than a related analogy. The majority of people do not realize that electrons in their orbits exhibit wavelike properties, or the fundamental implications of that phenomenon. I was just trying to spark curiousity. I must confess to being a bit of a science geek.
Here is a more thorough explaination of the electon's wavelike properties and "The Energy Gap, at 9:00.

Unless you're talking about Brian Cox.
There must have been a run on clean underwear after that!
