If everything has a purpose then evil doesn't exist

[R-Farmer]

"Sometimes the porous rock layers become tilted in the earth. There might be a confining layer of less porous rock both above and below the porous layer. This is an example of a confined aquifer. In this case, the rocks surrounding the aquifer confines the pressure in the porous rock and its water. If a well is drilled into this "pressurized" aquifer, the internal pressure might (depending on the ability of the rock to transport water) be enough to push the water up the well and up to the surface without the aid of a pump, sometimes completely out of the well. This type of well is called artesian. The pressure of water from an artesian well can be quite dramatic.

A relationship does not necessarily exist between the water-bearing capacity of rocks and the depth at which they are found. A very dense granite that will yield little or no water to a well may be exposed at the land surface. Conversely, a porous sandstone may lie hundreds or thousands of feet below the land surface and may yield hundreds of gallons per minute of water. Rocks that yield freshwater  have been found at depths of more than 6,000 feet, and salty water has come from oil wells at depths of more than 30,000 feet. On the average, however, the porosity and permeability of rocks decrease as their depth below land surface increases; the pores and cracks in rocks at great depths are closed or greatly reduced in size because of the weight of overlying rocks."

Uh, quote mining without an understanding of the actual science behind it may do for showing off how pathetic is one’s attachment to fantasies in the “scripture”.    but it will not do as substitute for actual knowledge of reality

The porous aquifer in the shallow crust does not contain 3 times as much water as on the surface.    The 3 times as much water that is inside the earth primarily exist inside the mantle of the earth much deeper down, in chemically bound water inside mantle rocks.   They don’t exist 30,000 feet down.   They exist from 30-3000 miles down.   They are not wet, as you might be able to frame in reference.   They did not get down there because water percolated through the aquafer.   They were there either as original part of earth’s composition, or were dragged under when water saturated sediments became pulled into the mantle at subduction plate boundaries over the age of the earth.  And they return slowly to the surface through volcanos, and slowly is good because they are explosive when they are brought up to the surface quickly.

Maybe you ought look up and read the initial PBS article I referenced. It explains it all in greater detail. I posted the artisan well quote from the USGS because it simplified the whole PBS "ringwoodite/water retention thing and explains it simply to something you might relate to. because you did not seem to either read the material I originally referenced or you did not fully understand it. Which is why I offered the USGS article.

So, do you really need me to really connect the dots? If I do I might sound a little condescending drawing parallels between the two articles.

I'm sorry I could not post the actual link to the articles as this would have made it simpler to follow, but the 30/30 is still in effect.
