During the winter, snow and ice may crush down the grass into a flat, matted sheet...
As the grass dries, usually by mid spring, it shrinks, causing the woven mat of fibres to tear apart. But as you can see, tiny strands are shy to separate. When a child is in the womb, it is normal for the mothers skin to develop such fissures, commonly known as stretch marks. When two geographic plates separate a similar rift is formed. And you also may see a similarity in the "Possible Landslide" photo from earlier. When any system divides, whether physical, as above, or sociological, such as a country or society, there will always be such reluctance to the "new order". If you have ever seen a cell divide or lovers parting, you have seen this process at work. Only with a perfect, ultra-thin division agent, such as a scalpel, can one system be cut into two without resistance. Naturally, though, as the blade of a scalpel is as close to a plane without thickness as we can practically make, and as you may know from the dimensions page, a plane can wedge into the tiniest three-dimensional space.
