[QUOTE="fba827, post: 5103842, member: 807"] someone/something pulled the drain plug :) -- though that would imply all the water is now trapped just beneath the earth's surface... or did the water go elsewhere? raising the water level of another sea/ocean? creating a sea/ocean where one did not exist before?) But more seriously, Perhaps there is a myth (replace the gods with whatever): Hermes, the trickster god, as a joke had just stolen one of Apollo (god of sun)'s treasures in the Astral Sea and hid it on the Earth. In (mock-)anger/retaliation, Apollo fired the sun's rays upon Hermes, catching the Trickster God on fire with solar intensity. To douse the flames, he jumped into the nearby sea... causing all the water to evaporate. Hermes returned Apollo's treasure and to this day, they still share a laugh about the incident ... [/QUOTE]
