It's the end of the world as we know it, And I feel fine...

Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign towers. Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.

Think of the skin on an apple - The Earth's crust is proportionately thinner.

Waxed, or unwaxed?

The Earth's Mantle is somewhere between 2886 and 2993 kilometers thick. The Mantle's Crust (=Earth's Crust) varies between 6 and 60 kilometers, with the thinnest being near Mid-Ocean Rifts, and the thickest being under continents.
