Of course it's a myth, no one is saying it's not. But your statement was that it would have been impossible. It didn't happen, but it wouldn't have been impossible.

I now point out that silver dollars didn't exist when Washington was young and you want to change the coin

Just like you said that a major league baseball player couldn't throw a baseball 300 feet and then changed the criteria.

Man, you are something else. You originally said that the legend was believable because "teenagers' routinely throw rocks more than 250 feet. (see your response 3.)

I responded that no one could throw a rock that far and that not even professional baseball or football players have done it. (see my post 8)

You responded with bogus stats that include running after the catch for football and bounces and rolls for baseball. This is hardly analogous unless a rock can run or roll on water. (see your post 9)

Some other guy mentions seeing Bo Jackson threw a guy out from 300 feet. I researched it and there is evidence that it happened and that it is the longest in the air throw. Even if it isn't, it was so rare it made international news. I also provided proof with cited sources that the longest pass in the air was 83 yards (249 ft.).

Another poster compares silver dollars and baseballs. I point out that there were NO silver dollars at the time, and you come up with this: The US silver dollar was roughly the same size and weight as a British half-crown, on which it was consciously modeled with the intention of transitioning from British coin to US coin as seamlessly as possible.

I point out that this can not be true because the halfcrown had one third the silver of our first dollar.

You go back to professional baseball players.

Bo Jackson and a few others may have thrown an aerodynamic projectile 300 ft. after a lifetime of training, practice and steroids. No one could throw a coin 300 feet. Not even them. George Washington joined the Navy at 14. I don't see how an early teen could do it.

You are a Bill Clinton debater; only admitting to what your opponent can prove. You pulled the halfcrown stuff out of your butt. Admit it.

I consistently provided sources, you provided none.

If you want a discussion with Soliton come prepared next time. You are not a very good liar
