Default Water from the rock

This miracle appears quite a few times in the bible--I think both Moses and Peter do it. Yet I've also heard that it was also a famous act of Poseidon. Anybody know about this legend?

Talking

seeing as how quite a few christian and jewish miracles were cribbed from other, pagan, sources, it wouldn't surprise me one bit to find out poseidon had first rights to the "water-from-rock" schtick.
