Actually, it was stated that the crystal takes on the attributes of the
substances it is in proximity to; since it was placed in a Kryptonite
cylinder, it took on those attributes.

It might have just taken on the features or attributes of the dry land.

I got the impression still that he gave it one last giant push-- it
might be that because the object was so frickin' huge that it didn't
appear to move fast-- I think it was probably moving quite fast for an
object of that size.

I understand that with a story like LNH vol. 2 # 15, in which my bad
physics was the crux of the plot.  But in a story like this, you may
want to work a little harder on suspending disbelief; you don't want to
be that guy whining because the Hulk still has Banner's pants. :-)
