Thanks for the comment. I forgot to give my usual information:
For more info on plate tectonics (including this image), go to:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_tectonics
Or see the image at its description page:

The image is based on materials originally from the U.S. Geological Survey and is in the public domain.
