I've heard that of lava... rest assured, mine is not of the black variety...
I really wanted to keep some when I was younger, as my family had hiked on the Big Island out to the active lava flow and I got to stick my hiking stick into the flow and stir it around a bit... pulling some out and subsequently cooling it... but rest assured, my parents wouldn't hear it...
I am taking a geology class right now and was useful to bring in to class ^
