When I was a kid, having seen on television that lava from volcanoes would harden into rocks, I decided that all rocks must have been created by a volcano spewing out lava. I figured that different types of rocks resulted from the lava drying differently. I asked my mom about this and she said "well, that's not far off." I later learned about igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rock in school -- so I wasn't *completely* wrong!
