Fossils of vegetation are infinitely more common than fossils of animals. If they were in fact 10 million years off in documenting the existence of at least 10 species of simple plants like grasses, it does, to some degree, call interpretation of the entire fossil record into question.
I believe in the fossil record, but this result does force some major, major questions on those responsible for interpreting plant development in the Cretaceous, and to some degree on what the record can really tell us over all about paleo-environments, the food chain and plant evolution.
The implications of this are major, assuming, of course, the reporter is getting this right...

But he's right, "anti-Christian" or not. Science is self correcting, religions are not.
big difference. Not necessarily anti-Christian (or anti religion), just true.

That is exactly what science is. Theories/hypothesis/estimates are constantly proven or disproven through the introduction of new data and findings through the scientific process.

"different from theology, where no one ever learns anything."
So you don't think anyone ever learns anything from theology?

No, it is just generational. If you went to high school in the 70s, grass was 40 million years old. In the 80s it was 50 million years old. Now it is 70 million years old. Graphing that trend, as all good scientists would, puts it at grass at 100 million years old about 2050.

I know that. That's what makes it so undependable. So one is more "dependable" to the extent that they refrain from revising their knowledge and understanding in light of the results of criticism and crucial tests?
I was going to say that this suggests a rather eccentric definition of "dependable," but from a creationist maybe not.
