[SPEC] Basic elementals

In our mythic childhoods when we put together ship models, if it began to look too avant guard we then tried out the printed instructions. What if we just go back and look at the basic things that are obvious:

* It makes a moaning, groaning sound, like some kind of beasty.
* It causes moderate earthquake rumblings at great distance.
* Given the distance, it caused a fireball much larger than any past beasty from idiotic giant monster films (of any brand or toy TM). The fireball was at least 40 stories and Godzilla was 40 stories itself. The moaning thing should be able to get Godzilla stuck between its toes and hardly notice.
* The explosion sent fireball miles into the sky, and some of these had reports like bottle rockets the size of cars (were they cars on fire, sent flying, gas tanks going bursting seconds after the car is on fire?).
* People who catch a glimpse of it on the horizon say, "animal," reiterating the first point above.
* The thing can throw, like a baseball pitch, the 17 foot long, 20 ton head of SOL (fitting double meaning there) at least two miles. If it was at Rob, the ricochet is was either lucky or very nicely done (golf putt applause). In any case, the thing thinks and is mean spirited.
* Possibly or possibly not related, Rob's reactions have a hint of the "oh, darn, I was kind of worried about this happening," sensibility to them.
* New York is a bit warm late at night for January.
* The interesting thing at the Slusho site is that someone has gone down to the bottom of the ocean and taken something (humans are the parasite?) from something that must be kept cold.

A modern tale of Cthulhu does not yet leave my mind when looking at what's here so far.
