Found at SpaceWeather:
--- Space artist Merry Wooten anticipated the discovery two decades ago:  Wooten had a hunch that Saturn's powerful tides might cause geothermal activity on Enceladus. Her painting of the resulting ice-geysers first appeared in a planetarium show, "When Worlds Erupt," in 1986. --- I want more. Where are other Enceladus artists? -------------------- - blue_scape / Nico -

That escape velocity is still 900 km/h or 560 mph, which is pretty quick. Once we know more about rates and volumes we can make estimates of the pressures involved.
