I just went to a seminar, and it was pretty informative. I actually learned a lot, and enjoyed it immensely. Everyone there was amazingly smart, and so very helpful. I was a little intimidated by everyone because they were so knowledgeable, and I didn't understand half the things they were saying.
The seminar was about the Mono-Inyo volcanoes that is located near Mammoth mountain. I had no idea that you could learn so much from cinder cones, and they are hopefully able to apply that information to a future eruption (if there is another one). There are two cinder cones that are directly next to each other that erupt different lavas. They wanted to know why that would be the case.
I was in awe with their project. I was impressed, and I knew I wanted to know more. The grad student that was showing me around was really sweet, and she was extremely helpful. I know that I'm going to like her.
It was a pleasant experience, and I would love to do it again sometime soon. :)
P.S. Happy birthday, Khanh!
