Bill N.Y.What is on the other side?
The age old question has been answered. No, it's not "how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop?"

RustyAlso note that there are many places on Earth where you can start your drill in the Pacific Ocean and come out in...the Pacific Ocean!
Anyway, from here, I end up a few hundred miles wnw of Perth, Aus.
