- CWU's Nick Zentner presents 'Ghost Volcanoes in the Cascades' - the 21st talk in his ongoing Downtown Geology Lecture Series. Recorded at Hal Holmes Center on February 28, 2018 in Ellensburg, Washington, USA. www.nickzentner.com
4:26 in and talking Ghost Volcanoes… the geologist that spent 40 summers mapping out a single area that most overlooked is truly remarkable. 👏 Standing Ovation 👏
If Nick was a lecturer at my college, I’d be glued to my seat. Nick is the epitome of Teaching 👨🎓
You can sit in on his classes for free! They must be packed!
I would refuse to go home....more, more...
Nick is probably the most inspired and passionate Rock guy. Spent several years with my cousin here in Texas, and she is still an Environmental Geologist. She moved to Portland, Ore., earlier this year which was something she's been wanting to do since forever. Cascades are like a Geological Wonderland there She's in Rock Heaven up there
Dude... CWU, whatever you paid this guy, it wasn't enough. What an amazing, engaging presentation on a topic that could have very easily been boring.
He did many videos from home during the lockdown, go look at his channel, Nick Zentner
We love him here
Honestly, if this guy can make an in-depth, hour long lecture about rocks not only interesting, but entertaining at the same time, practically ad-lib, I'd pay the guy my year's salary to read from phone book.
@@wtglb Nick is awesome!!! Wish I had teachers like this, growing up.
@@azeers1975 I agree! I did have a few good teachers, but the majority were just going through the motions 🤷🏻♀️
Love that he is using a chalkboard
0:02 - A time traveler from 2020 with his mask!
I love Geological History. I understand everything this Man is talking about. And he is reminding me about certain details that I have forgotten about. I honestly feel* like I'm in high school again paying attention to what he is saying.
I live in the UK. I now know more about the geology of Washington State than anywhere else on Earth. I'm really enjoying this lecture series.
Hello from America! Nice to hear. Thanks.
Keep them coming!
@@Ellensburg44 I'm also from the UK, although I did vist Mt Rainier 2 years ago. You inspired me to look at a geological map of where live, Edinburgh, and discovered my walk this afternon was on a hill made of andesite with views of a sill, columnar gabro, a volcanic vent and a neatly sectioned 350 million year old volcano. Thank you
I watch Time Team and know more about the UK's history than I do about the mountain I live on in NW Washington state!! 😁
This is the beauty of RUclips and what we're capable of learning thanks to a platform like this haha
Due to the lectures I know more about Washington geology than about my own living area in The Netherlands. Thank you Nick.
Hi Dick!
Basically it was underwater, now it's not...
@@bradbuster4102 Has anyone wondered what brought the US up from the sea lvl? Its more than just ocean lvl rise and fall, theirs another reason, Farallon plate went under and mantle with the plumes, super volcanoes and flood basalts had their part in it as well, back when and currently.
Dutch geology must be fascinating, though! A country that was largely reclaimed from the sea! Really astonishing.
Washington state geology is probably some of the most diverse and interesting one will find in close proximity, though. I love it!
I just moved to Washington, watched the Zentner series and now I know more about Washington than most of the natives.
Stumbled across these lectures about a month ago and cannot stop watching! Mr. Zentner is such an entertaining and gifted teacher. I'm quickly becoming quite knowledgeable on the geology and geological history of the Pacific Northwest and I live in Alabama! Bravo! Hope to visit my cousin in Spokane soon.
Nice comments. Thanks! Come visit.
I couldn't agree with you more.
Mr. Zentner, you have set the standard of teaching that I wish all other teachers would emulate. If I had you when I was going to school, I would be looking forward to going to school, not dreading it. Keep up the great work!
yeah I've been bingewatching prof zenter over the last 10 days. I'm a sucker for plate tectonics, end morraines, and especially maps. I wish his 6 part series had maps in it, but it was still very good.
Am hooked too :D Kinda binge watching haha
I would seriously attend lectures like this for fun (in a world where we can gather again). It's kinda nice to learn without having to take notes or an exam. I especially would love to hear geology lectures on where I live, in Utah. We've some strange geology down here, and a decent fault line too.
You should learning is continuous check your local college 👌
We can have that normalcy again IF enough people would stand up & refuse these BS mandates. I've been fighting then from day one, literally!!
@@burlfaulkii6496agreed, don't people understand that they can't throw us all in jail?
@@burlfaulkii6496 Constitution day is coming up (sept 17 oops) I always refer to that when people trying to give me their latest essay paper to read 📃 🙃
Qqqq away away
I lived in Southern California when Mt. St. Helens exploded. Even that far away, we got ash... not any measurable amount, more the consistency of a bad case of dandruff. But I remember that, and being kind of amazed at how far the ash had traveled. Love the lectures. 😊
We got ash in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I was lucky in a way to have that experience.
Had ash on my car for days near Chicago. Incredible sunsets.
I. Lived in Monterey central ca. When st. Helen's blew we had crazy sunsets and enough dust you Easley right your name on are cars or any flat surface.
There where people arriving in there area trying to sell glass viles of ash.
@@jerryrichards8172 We lived in South King County and I knew instantly when that thing went off; not only bcuz we were expecting a major eruption at any time, but it woke us out of a dead sleep. But my dad was a dispatcher for a trucking 🚚company, and he had a re-route many of his drivers. The driver northbound I-5 out of Vancouver, Washington, thankfully stopped to scoop up some small spice jars with ash. I still have one
My family was camping on Mt Hood the day St Helen erupted. There was a hard shaking and what sounded like sonic booms and then it was as if it was night. 10 am could have been 10 pm by the amount of ash that fell over us. Needless to say we packed up and went home within the hour.
We have blast columns here in Ireland too. Called the giants causeway
I’ve lived almost 20 years in Washington (from France originally) and it’s only now through these lectures that I begin to understand our surroundings. Thanks to you professor Zentner! May you live a long life so we, the general public, get to enjoy your work and get a little smarter, a little more informed with each passing lecture.
Very nice comments. Thanks!
R G iiii
I'm only watching this because of all the wonderful comments of this lecture and it's teacher, professor . Lol
Can't imagine who disliked this video!!! Nick Zentner is such a wonderful educator, he's the teacher you loved and remember all your life. If I ever win the lottery and don't have to worry about supporting myself, I'll move from Canada to beautiful Washington state, throw a sh*t load of money at CWU and enroll in his class at the ripe age of 62. Thanks Nick, your passion is inspiring and you make we want to learn which is no mean feat... I really hated school (LOL) but love your lectures on RUclips.
Memorable comments, Pearl. Thanks! Come visit.
@Cerberus ... what makes you think that a bible thumper would ever visit a site that has anything to do with actual education
Flat earthers and religious zealots. Look at any Hitchen vidyos. Same there.
Maybe disgruntled students who didn’t have the chops to pass the class!
@Cerberus I am a born again Christian and have been watching Zentner for about 3 years now. Don't be so ignorant about Christian's and God you'll one day meet. I LOVE learning about Gods creation!
My hope is that your students realize just how fortunate they are to have a Professor of your magnitude.. Ae 9+
I've been watching these videos for a couple of months and have learned SOOO much! Fascinating! And YOU, Nick, make it so easy to comprehend and fun too...Thank-you so much... to you and all involved in making these videos and presenting them to us just for the sake of loving to teach those who love to learn...Bravo : )
Watching these lectures makes me want to visit Washington. Thank you for posting this!
I remember when St. Helens blew. I lived in Seattle and in the shadow of Rainier for half my life. The thought of the lahars begat from Rainier blowing its top is rather terrifying.
Extremely
56:50 the columns look like the ones at Giant's Causeway in Derry, N. Ireland. Fascinating lectures!!! Go raibh maith agat!
These lectures don't concern my geographic location, yet; I still watch them.
I wish you were a Professor in my state ! That way I could find out how a giant sandbar got deposited on an ancient coral reef, Florida !
@@jimlangley840 I'm also watching from FL and have thought the same thing!
I hope, at my advanced age, if I get the chance to return to college, I can find instructors with the abilities this gentleman has.
I love this guy! Fantastic Professor! I have learned more about volcanoes in the past few hours than in 43 years of life. I would go back to school if he were my teacher!
Stumbled across this lecture series while watching Geographics... I love these! So interesting, I think after I retire I'll go back to school to study geology!
Thank you so much for these videoed lectures- I love them so much. I share my interest in volcanoes earthquakes etc with my mother. Unfortunately, she had a massive stroke last year that has left her paralysed an unable to speak, though her intellect has been unaffected. I've been telling her about these lectures- I'm hoping I'll be able to take my lap top into the care home where she lives now, and play them for her. I knowshe'll enjoy them as much as I do!
Thank you, Carolyn. Best wishes to mother!
Go for it daughter! Love and prayers for you and your Mama!
I was at Mt.St.Helens on May 18,1980.I was at the Cle Elm ranger station when the call came in.I heard the call and the young man died.We worked our way clearing the park.When the main blast hit,we were 75 miles away.The only thing between death was the driver side window and door.I have never seen anything like that.
I was on my way home to Longview with my parents following me..we pulled over to watch the blast! My boyfriend and I left for friend home in Boise, Idaho 9 days..no work for either of us! I Remember watching all the debris floating down the Toutle river...exciting times!
@Nick Zentner Thanks so much for this wonderfully fascinating presentation. I feel like I've learned something significant this afternoon.
I just listened like a kid around a campfire--I'm a three time hiker to the summit of Whitney and this whole time I had no idea I was on top of a granitic batholith on a GHOST Volcano! How cool was his presentation?!? Kudos just an amazing speaker.

If my image processing lecturer had had 20% of zentner's passion, skill and empathy as a teacher, I'd probably have gone into the field, let alone got a passing grade on that course :)
You have to love geologists. Several million tons of boiling rock and mud careening down a mountain at over a hundred miles per hour is "just a hazard".

This fellow is terrific, he has several videos on RUclips.

He did live “Nick From Home” videos since the lockdown, they are great, go to Nick Zentner Channel
Had I met you when i was in college I'd be a Geologist. What a wonderful group of videos and lectures I get to enjoy! Thank you!
THANK YOU so much for making these presentations available!!!
I am feeling extremely overwhelmed. I want to spend a month talking to this professor. I somehow had his lecture just auto start and I actually watched the whole thing. Wow am I a rock nerd. I am a Michigander and have an obsession with Michigan rocks and minerals. I am no geologist, only a true rock hound who loves the why to every rock I see. Early this month we traveled to the very small mountain range in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Some of the rocks that are regular in this region, looked very similar to the rocks that he had shown. I have so many questions!? How could this be so. I have always been curious to how some of our rocks being very porous and we have a black rock that is full of so many fossilized organisms ( like plants and shells) it looked like one he held up during one picture. I only have small pieces and they are rolled smooth by the lakes, unless you like to look elsewhere. We also have granite, basalt, diorite, quartz, shale, sandstone, mudstone, and so many more!! I guess I should just find a Michigan Professor that has the same passion for local geology as this guy does for Washington geology. 😄
Thank you Professor Zentner, your style of teaching takes me back to my Jr. High and High School days. I had a couple of teachers that had a similar energy and style to yours, and for me those are the teachers who made the greatest impacts on my education. I consider you a Rock Star!!!
Thank you for these, I really enjoy your insights. Plus I was a teacher for 30- years and I enjoy your personality as a lecturer.
A shout out to the incredible work by Portland State University geologists. Dr. Paul Hammond is the Volcanologist’s volcanologist. Tirelessly and relentlessly collecting data and putting out research like lava from a shield cone volcano. Bravo to Dr. Hammond and to PSU for being the hardest working department in the NW…at least when measured based on funding dollars.
Nick, your lectures are second to none. Your enthusiasm and presentations totally compliment the topic of discussion. Excellent work and well done.
You're a mensch, Prof. Zentner (should that be "Dr?").... and you're *still* putting these talks on video, for which I'm eternally grateful. :-)
My little brother is the geologist (has been for almost 40 years), but we're both born scientists and I'm no more immune to geology than I am to astrophysics. :-)
May you continue with this stuff for as long as suits you best... and if my saying "Cheers, mate!" is any encouragement at all, maybe you'll continue for as long as you're teaching. :-)
Cheers, mate! :-)
Thanks for the encouragement, Michael. I enjoy putting these together. That people like you enjoy them is just frosting on the cake.
Thanks for watching, Michael. It's fun to put these together. Glad that you are enjoying them.

Ok this guy needs his own channel! I would watch him religiously.

We were deep in a cave in the Marble Mountains and heard a hum
Absolutely fantastic lecture, Even though you think you know everything there is always something new to learn! It is practically endless which is why Paul has been at it for 50 years and is still making new maps, overall there is so much more of the story yet to be discovered like the recent proposed discovery that the lava chambers of Rainer, Hood and St Helens are all linked underground. If you live in Seattle like I do, get out there an explore. It is also good to note for people watching that while the subduction zone volcanos in central and southern California are long gone other volcanic systems remain very active such as the massive Long Valley volcanic field / Supervolcano, Mammoth Mountain which has actively gassing vents as well as the very very active Salton Buttes with its amazing mud volcanos and off gassing spatter cones, the western USA has volcanic activity everywhere you look. I think it is by pure chance that we are in such a quiet time in the history of the west so get out there and enjoy it as it is today.
I live in Georgia and these lectures make me not only want to travel to Washington and sit in on one of these lectures but learn more about the geology of where I live. I was a biology major in college but geology was probably my favorite class I ever took. It was never boring to me
Thanks for watching, Anthony. Come visit!
I'm actually willing to do the school game again if THIS guy is my professor. My last 3 days have been brain packing unlike i have ever seen, and I haven't once lost the slightest interest. This man is gifted... I swear I am going to look into the university this next year of he is still there and I can get his class
I believe his Univ. lectures are open the public.
Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved. John 3:16 (share the good news of the gospel around the world!) Have a wonderful day/night, may the LORD bless you all, and farewell!,.,,,,,,.,,.,.
Watching your lecture was fantastic. If I had instructors like you I would have finished my degree or two.

No putty loves me.
Oh, here's a postulation, for why aren't there Old Lahars? Perhaps, because it's just mud, and that erodes easy?

Lol
This guy is amazing at what he does. Great presentation.
I would love to see you do learn more about, and do lectures on the south Cascades region between St. Helens and Adams, and talk about all the cinder cones, spatter cones, and shield volcanoes in the area. I am especially interested in the small cones and vents in the Indian Heaven volcanic field and the Mt Adams flank vents.
And how about central Oregon?
Absolutely. This guy makes geology interesting.
Am I really being blessed with another awesome teaching video when Im still so thankful for yesterdays :), How fun Im so excited to start watching
Nice report. Thanks!
me too
Nick Sentner always delivers the clearest info and with an interesting personality! He is smart and funny and leaves me with further resources to pursue! I I love his science based stories and the great visual evidence he is sharing with us. I am a blackboard kind of student, and appreciate his visual hand built pictures.
I have no idea how RUclips directed my attention to this guy, but boy am I glad it did. These lectures are awesome! I think I’ve watched about 20 and have loved them all.
Thank you for this mesmerizing series on the Northwest where I was born and spent my youth. As others have stated so well and often, I too am blown away by your wonderful lectures, and am happily working my way through them all. I have always collected rocks on our travels and love discovering what they are and how they were made. My son recently brought me a large river rock from Pasco that I now know is from my birth place by its golden color on one half, and older than the hills because of the slow flowing granite layers of the other half.
I really enjoy these lectures. Very interesting, informative, and presented very well by a dynamic and engaging speaker. I live in the Pacific Northwest and hike in the Cascades all the time, and will certainly look at them with a better understanding of their formation and evolution. Keep these films coming as they are great!
Appreciate the comments, Steven!
I honeymooned on Rainier and Yakima in 1973. I love it then and I understand it better thanks to this lecture. Thank you
Autoplay was openin a tab i wasnt working on and the audio to this video sucked me in to watching. Do not regret it. Thank you for an amazing and captivating presentation
So grateful for this dude turning me on to Geology
You are talented. Your lectures are a joy to watch. Thank you for the video.
Great presentation Mr. Zentner !
It is better than any TV entertainment ! I am a true fan of yours !
Please keep them coming !
Thanks much for the encouragement!
Great to see you adding some new lectures... I have just about worked my way through the older ones now! Like the other poster below, I am a Brit, although I now live in Pennsylvania, but I know more about the geology of Washington now than anywhere else I have ever been! I did spend a few days in Yakima back in 2001 while on a road trip, but I wish I had known this stuff back then!
Thanks Phil. Come back and visit!
Pennsylvania has some strange and fascinating geological and geologically-adjacent (to borrow the parlance of SoCal real-estate agents where many parts of town are "Beverly Hills-adjacent" despite their generous distance from those hills) stories in its own right. From the glacial influence and extended plateaus to ringing rocks and megaliths plopped down right in the middle of the woods to the cautionary tale of Centralia, geological oddities and mysteries figure prominently in that state. Regardless, I second Mr. Buglass' appreciation for the lectures. Truly fascinating stuff coming from a natural-born teacher. As we're apparently "ahead" of the Northwest, geologically speaking, I only wish we had an analogue to Mr. Zenter down here in SoCal.
Dang it! Learning about the batholiths in the Cascades just makes me more curious about the older ones in the Rocky’s like the Bitterroot Range in the Idaho Batholith. I even thought I’d try to learn about the geology of Butte Montana because of all of the mining, and while I’m happy to say I understood more of what the one Geology video I could find on the region was telling me because of watching Nick’s videos, it’s sad that they weren’t as entertaining as Nick’s videos are. Can we clone him because he makes Geology fun and interesting.
Prof. Zentner is phenomenal. all our teachers should be so great at getting information across to everyone listening to his lectures! Thank you.
I absolutely Love NICK ZENTNER !! What a fabulous human you are Mr. Zentner!! You make life so much more fun
Great presentation. I have always been intrigued by geology and it amazes me how much we have learned in the past century. My wife and I travel out west annually and I know she gets tired of my verbal wonderment of geological formations. Thank you for sharing your great knowledge. I loved it and was enthralled. Even at 72 my mind wants to drink more.
Jesus christ this stuff is interesting! I live in the Midwest, one of the flattest states in America, and this lecturer has me transfixed. I'm up, can't sleep worth a damn, and youtube suggested this to me and boy, am I glad. I visited the Pacific Northwest, hiked and camped through the Oregon Cascades, on a wonderful vacation 25 years ago with my dear sister who is now gone. This lecture brings back a lot of memories, and the geology, kind of one of my casual interests, originally drew me to the area. Thanks for the fascinating info, and some happy memories.
Please don't use my precious Jesus' name as a swear word, just as I wouldn't use the name of a person you love as something dirty. I'm sure you can find many other ways to express yourself. Thanks.
@@kelrogers8480 Don't worry about it. That's not swearing.
@@meridien52681 I don't think you read my comment above. It is swearing, and it is very offensive to Christians. You wouldn't use Buddha's name instead, would you?

I'm just asking you to be a decent human being.

I like the chalk-boards instead of the dry-erase boards. You can see them better. Why did people stop using chalk-boards?
because you have to wash them afterwards, otherwise the whole thing is vaguely cloudy white and the writing becomes unclear. When I was in college, there were some chalkboards where erasing just made it worse
Dust. Bad for computers. Nevertheless, I agree with you -- I HATE WHITEBOARDS. Chalkboards are far better.
Because they're huffing the marker solvents
Chalkboards threaten to deplete the world's supply of slate.
He's a great speaker & i luv watching all the lectures !
This video is always in my recommendations, glad I watched it, I'm from Yakama or Central Washington
I have watched most of your lectures and find you most informative and entertaining - you are the best Nick please keep it up !! - I live here in Melbourne Victoria Australia and go hiking in the state we also have dormant volcanoes here but only on a small scale - you should try and get over here one day !! - PS I notice most of your audience are " mature ".
Most of today's youth are taking "Social" classes instead of "Science" classes. I went to college in the 60's and 70's. By the time I had to leave (military requirements) I had the classes to receive one B.S. but only the hard science for the 2nd B.S. I was so looking forward for that double major, but I lacked the elective "Social" classes for that 2nd B.S. Maybe that is why I'm not up to speed in the social life of today.
This needs to be run daily along with updates of the La Palma volcano in Canary Islands off the northwestern coast of Africa. This is so CURRENT and informative.
What a story teller! Too short :) Beautiful pictures & video.
Fantastic and thanks for intelligent content.
Having grown up in South Westerm Pennsylvania with a burning love of geology, I was ill prepared for the mind staggering complexity of the Washington/Oregon area. You are truly living in a mineralocal/geological wonderland. I'll be back. BUT, this time, thanks to your lovely videos I will see things far clearer. Thak you.
Thanks much, Mike!
Back in 1986 I hiked over the North Cascades from the Suiattle River drainage, over Suiattle and Rainy Pass down through Lyman Lake and Hart Lake. When we got down to the Lyman Glacier we found huge granite boulders about 20 feet tall. We spent a few hours climbing up on one with harnesses and rope. Now I know why and how this bolder got there. Thanks Nick!
Thanks for the report and the comments!
The Geology of this region is very interesting and complicated. This series of videos are great!!
such a wonderful video! I've watched it three times! But boy, oh boy, RUclips is a shadow of its former self, as we all cringed with anticipation of January 2020.
It was my good fortune to grow up in a home filled with books on a variety of subjects. I had exposure to many things and from that exposure, I could supplement my learning through books from the library, or documentaries on TV.
I couldn't activate notifications for this channel, hence my complaint to my complaint to wacky YT:
"Why on Earth would you make unavailable to children, participation in a fascinating presentation about Earth science?? I'm sure glad I didn't grow up in an environment that interfered with this sort of wonderful learning. Also, as an adult I resent not being able to activate the subscription notifications."
I can appreciate there may be some videos they want to prevent children from seeing, but to stop them from being able to like, save to a playlist, or activate notifications of educational materials is ludicrous.
Awesome video and lecture! I'm a super geek and I loved it.
What a gift. Thank you so much. Hats off to all the smart geology folks who are engaged In this most interesting era....epoch? Whatever. Beautiful country.
Thanks for the comments, Wayne.
Thank you for another great lecture Mr. Zentner! It makes me feel inspired to understand more about the geomorphology of my area.
Nice to hear. Thanks!
This guy, let’s call him Nick for now, has the unique talent of taking a mundane, dare I say..boring subject, an eye lid dropper at best, into a informative, engaging and entertaining lecture! The kind where 11:23 you walk away with a smile, a lot more knowledge than u had b4 and a warm fuzzy feeling in your stomach ( or that’s lunch kickin in, idk) a hallmark of a Great teacher who obviously cares about his subject and audience. Good job Nick, if indeed that is your real name! Ty
I love this series, best wishes from Guatemala, Central America
I love all your lectures. You are my Rock Star.
I graduated from CWU in '97 but with a non-geology degree. Nick makes me wish I would have been a geologist so I could have sat in his classes. I no longer live in WA state but I sure do love the Yakima-Ellensburg area.
Great geological history lesson, alot of information to obsorb, but a goid beginning, very enjoyable presentation, hopefully someday I'll make up into that area, do a bit of hiking and cramping, thank you
I'd like recommend the software program RX8 by iZotope. its an audio restoration program for movies, dialogue, and music. you can clean up dialogue by taking backround noises out, and electrical hums and such.
Thank you, Mike. The student crew in charge of audio/video that year was not impressive.
If the extinct volcanoes are 'Ghost Volcanoes', then are the long quiescent volcanoes that may or may not be dead 'Zombie Volcanoes'?
Ha! Very nice!
That would work but they lable them as dormant and when found active active again.
These are the questions that keep me up at night
It seems to me, that the only truly 'extinct' volcano is a ghost volcano. All others merely await the right conditions to become active again. Like Mt. St. Helen's, and Fuego down in So. America, and I think Japan has a couple that just woke up again.l, and let's not leave out Mayotte, which birthed a new volcano underwater that sent a signature around the world in 2019. Volcanology...fascinating.
OK people, this is a date sensitive joke, it was 2018 and the big trend in the entertainment media was still zombies... just... dont take it seriously... you will hurt your brain trying to find something rational in things that are utterly lacking in any rationality.
Amazing lecture and lecturer
I have lived 30-40 miles from the southern coasts of Washington my whole life and never heard of the ghost forest! That is awesome to hear about. I really enjoy your talks.
Damned fortunate. Another Night w/Nick, what more can you do before bedtime. I love this professors lectures.
Thank you for uploading this series of lectures. I know a lot more now about the geology of North West Washington then of my home continent of Europe ;) your lecturing style is very pleasant . A series of geology 101 would be very much appreciated. Thanks again from the Netherlands.
Or maybe you could point to a web source for it?
Hello from America! Thanks for watching.
I'm from the UK, where volcanoes are a bit thin on the ground, and I found this fascinating, even though I'm never likely to go and see it for myself.
So clearly explained that even a total newbie could understand at least the basics of it.
Dr. Zenter, another fabulous lecture. It boggles the mind. Thank you, Rob
Thanks Rob!
Nice to see some positive WAstate history.
Nice to know MOUNTAINS last longer than rioters!
God did some beautiful work making volcanos, plates. Everything in geology shows the care God has taken to show historic details.
Very interesting gentlemen, I thank you Peace to all...💜💙💜
I wish I had this guy in school as a teacher I would have paid attention
Love this video! Would love to take his class.
Loved it! That lecture was worth the watch. Fascinating information for the layman.
You are the most delightful lecturer ever. Bravo!!
It's professor's like Nick that made me happy to go to college. So much better than the teachers I had K-12.
