An geological pepsi.

Inside there are no crystals, instead there are a pepsi bottle. I don't know how many years the bottle stayed in the thermal stream of "Puente del Inca" in Mendoza, Argentina, but I think no more than twenty. The sulphur and other minerals covered it. Isn't it nice?.

I am including a photo of the place where you may see an old thermal bathroom that was shaken by an earthquake, years ago.

An alien meeting

When I first met him, I was really scared because he was almost three meters tall with two legs but four arms, three eyes on the front of his face and two more at his back, and a tail long enough to sweep the floor.But then he said in perfect english that he wanted to play football and he was looking for a team to do an interplanetary match. Then I said yes of course, when you want.He became very happy and said that he had to get a referee to the match.He said that he came from Saturn that first he had gone to Mars but the martians doesn't care about football, then he had to go far away to find an impartial referee.And I never saw him again. What a pity.Afterward I kept thinking what weird were the martians, ¡they don't like football!!!.What do you think?

I was born ten years after the finish of the second world war in south america, then I learnt about it in the school, and I remember that was quite a shock to realize what a human being can do to another human being, and I passed a lot of time trying to understand how it could be posible.In 1978 I was doing the military service and we had a political conflict with the Republic of Chile and we were quite near to start a war with them. But until where I could see, nobody hated them. Once came an high-ranking official and gave us an very stupid talk, and after a while all my companions were ready to fight. A very stupid talk, a very stupid war. We were all together in a boat like Ulises hearing the singing of the mermaids driving us toward the destruction. God, what easy can be to start a war. To injure thousands of people, to kill, to mutilate. My companions, people who had studied twelve years in differents schools were ready to kill, just because an stupid talk.All the great killers of the history did not come from mars.And it was bitter to understand that we have to blame us, we did those ugly things. We have it inside us and only us can decide to do what the Ulises's crew did.
