Calling for AAPL to go to $175 this year on $3T in sales
Found in 106,000 year old sediment stone ...
“They were only recently revealed due to recent heavy rains in the area. Prior evidence showed that the area was once an inland watering hole ... the size of the individuals that made them, all of which fell into the average range of four to five feet tall, except one - an individual who was either much larger than average or who was carrying something heavy.”
When I'd seen the consensus number was around $150, I figured it would be more like $225 in this market. Apple's fallen behind Tesla in the most-widely-held list on Robinhood, btw. :^)
SO, what must have happened at that place to preserve these footprints for literally thousands of years? No weathering, no erosion, no waves, no wind, no rain, no entropy at all?..................
About 40 billion people have walked the Earth. Imagine what a tiny fraction 87 must be of all the footprints ever left by anyone.
I don't know where the water/tides were back then, nor where this site is precisely in relation, but I would guess that a simple mudslide from the soft, nearby cliffs could have covered/preserved them.
Maybe Maxine Waters was stomping about over there?
Serendipity.
But your premise is incorrect with a lot of them from the photos. A fair number are clear, while most were clearly affected by erosion or whatnot.
Somewhere in South America, there are dinosaur footprints in solid rock. I can only assume they were preserved by volcanic eruptions..................
Probably mud on the side of a river that got covered up.
The path behind my house in Israel has Roman (or Greek or someone in a different style shoe than native) that got covered in mud and turned to almost stone. We made plaster casts since we had uncovered them by moving flagstones, so the local uni said they were not long for this world.
So at the moment they were walking the mud was soft enough to leave impressions an inch or two deep. Then it turned to rock.
The team is obviously transphobic. The other six individuals were either “non-binary” or “gender fluid.”

Yeah. Just not instantly, as with the wave of a magic wand.
I’m streaming at the Apple website. So far, snoozers.
Well, the sleepy stuff ended quick, eh? A12 in the AppleTV is still a snoozer, not least because, who cares about AppleTV content? But then the rumored multi-color ultraflat glass faced M1 24" iMacs, and the M1 iPad. What else are they gonna unleash in this event?
