There is a town just south of Portland named Boring, Oregon. The area contains over 30 cinder cones, some of which are within the Portland city limits. When I was in college up in washington State, this town was a regular joke about the state on our southern border.

Still, I wonder if there are Boring Fossils, or Boring Turbidites out there somewhere? :)]]> Kyle Gray 1254951240 http://serc.carleton.edu/earthandmind/posts/boring_rocks.html#post3623
