Weird subplot but a good posting/discussion.

ADD: Whoever on FR suggested reading Sarum owes me the price of five Rutherford novels; there's still one more I want to buy.

(Thanks)

Ask the people in Nevada, Oregon, and Arizona. If this happens to California, they’ll be under water.

It would hold for a time — as that old VW bug ad said, “it definitely floats, but not indefinitely”. ;’) It seems like each year there is an explanation for how glaciation happens, but there isn’t any uniformitarian model which works.

“tinsel strength”

s/b?

“tensile strength”?

[SunkenCiv]

Wasn’t me. :’)

Getting technical...from:

General Specifications of Polypropylene co-polymer resin

*****************************

• Tinsel Strength at Yield, lbs./sq.in., ASTM-D638: This test determines force taken to break/ tear a polypropylene sample at a speed rat of 2 inches/minute and percentage of elongation at time of yield or break. It took 4000 lbs./sq.in. of force with 10% elongation at time of yield or break.

Thanks! I followed that search link, and found out that it was discovered by one Dr. Tanenbaum.

Bryan Sykes says that the Thames and the Rhine were once the same river.

THE NORTH SEA. From Earth in Upheaval.

The stormy North Sea, brodered by Scotland, England, the Low Countries, Germany, Denmark, and Norway, is a very recent basin. The geologists assume that the area was once before occupied by a sea, but that early in the Ice Age the detritus carried from Scotland and Scandinavia filled it, so that there was no sea left: it was all turned into land. The river Rhine flowed through this land and the Thames was its tributary; the mouth of the river was somewhere near Aberdeen.

In post-glacial times, so it assumed, in the Subboreal period, which began about 2000 years before the present era and endured until 800 BC., large parts of the area were added to the sea. The Atlantic Ocean sent its waters along the Scottish and Norwegian shores, and also through the Channel that had been formed only a short while before. Human artifacts and bones of land animals were dredged from the bottom of the North Sea; and along the shores of Scotland and England, as well as on the Dogger Bank in the middle of the sea, stumps of trees with their roots still in the ground were found.

Forty-five miles from the coast, from a depth of thirty-six metres, Norfolk fishermen drew up a spearhead carved from the antler of a deer, embedded in a block of peat. This artifact dates from the Mesolithic or early Neolithic Age and serves as one of many proofs that the area covered by the North Sea was a place of human habitation not many thousands of years ago...

“Part Four is like the unravelling of a murder mystery: how could this catastrophic event of 11,500 years ago have come about? Some basic facts have to be explored: about Earth’s structure and magnetism; how polar shift or crustal displacement could occur; the nature of the solar system and the evidence for a planet having disappeared. Evidence for a cosmic upheaval having taken place at that time is considered, leading the authors to come to conclusions very different from Velikovsky’s - who studied similar evidence in his Worlds in Collision...”

I like Carolina Bays. Take a look at this map with the water level worldwide reduced by about 300 feet. Look at the round areas in the Bahamas. I've always thought those looked suspicious.

[Fred Nerks]

Thanks, that ‘map’ is HUGE!

The Carolina ‘bays’ are discussed on the Thunderbolts Forum:
