Wing Ip just had an interesting Iapetus-related paper published in GRL.

This discussion has become really interesting. I'm a complete interloper in this thread and I haven't even studied the Iapetus images properly but I was intuitively uneasy about the accumulating sandpile idea and just wanted to see how far we could get with an alternative. I hope some of the others join in too. Where for example is Richard Trigaux? I'm sure he would have something to say about this. In the meantime can I repeat Rob Pinnegar's request for a quick link to the best pictures showing multiple ring ridges and/or diverging chevrons - anybody got them handy?
