You’re welcome. I thought the stories about the history
of mankind were interesting.

No, Trump did it.

Maybe it was Barron (time-traveler).

Please see the recently published paper, available here:
http://maajournal.com/Issues/2019/Vol19-1/7_Jaye%2019(1).pdf

Bottom line: geology’s ‘no flood, ever’ paradigm is the source of our misunderstandings of earth and human history.

Also, the YD impact event and the worldwide flood are the same event.

Author of the paper is a fellow WP graduate. Best to him!

In the year or two after Pinatubo in 1991 there were severe climate influences. In the US north east, my brother in upper New York told me about the severe ice storm that deposited more than an inch of ice on branches and rows of broken trees up and down the highways. Googling “severe weather effects after Pinatubo 1991” yielded the links listed below. There were others about effects in various parts of the world.

The Toba eruption around 73,000 years ago caused a long term sudden drop in the already dropping temperature (see temperature charts for the last several hundred thousand years. Also there were several severe dips in temperatures in the 20 thousands BC. One was probably a huge Vesuvius eruption. Another about 22,000 ya was probably caused by the eruption of the Japanese volcano Sakarajima. It left a caldera over 10 miles in diameter and the modern volcano is on one edge of that crater. This Dryas event was apparently very widely spread and cause a major cooling lasting well over a thousand years.

Isn’t possible that some huge impact could have actually cracked the Earth’s crust along fault lines and caused volcanoes to spring up all over the globe or those that existed already to erupt in simultaneous manner, thus causing a global catastrophic temperature reduction?....................
