Thanks for the post. It's a shame Barry Fell isn't alive to see this- he wrote, "America B.C."

[Ditter]

They may even find a junk yard of old SUV's that brought the ice age to an end 5,500 years ago.


You know someone had to say it, that and it's Bushs fault. Now carry on.

I can see right through this one. The super-rich who don't want the wind farm blocking their view (e.g. Walter Commiekrite) are floating this in order halt development. Why it would be a crime against history to build a wind farm on a site of potential historical importance. HOODWINK ALERT!

The find has scientists abuzz because if a preserved forest rests below the sea, maybe artifacts from ancient cultures do, too...

Du-uh...

Thanks Fractal Trader! This energy exploration should not, however, prevent the DRILLING OF THE ANWR. ;')

if a preserved forest rests below the sea, that means that the planet was getting warmer all on its own and ocean levels have risen all without the "help" of humans; so maybe,... the Global Warming thing IS A MYTH Mr./Ms. Scientist!

Weight added every day to my theory that man got here from europe, not asia.
(and if from asia, it was by boat, by accident, and in very small numbers)

Spotted Sea Owl Alert!

Will this be taken by the UN as a World Heritage site?

Surviving Naragansett indians, horrified at the prospect
of Viking beer mugs turning up, have demanded that this
all be declared presumptive sacred tribal lands, not open
to any discovery of actual facts.

[Dustbunny]

Interesting.

[ So much of the world's water was locked up in glaciers during the ice age, ocean levels plummeted at least 300 feet. New England's continental shelf was exposed and in some places, the coastline extended more than 75 miles from its current location. ]

Must the effects of global warming.. for several thousand years..

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Oh, the tragedy. A lost forest, inundated by Global...wha ?

[Cold Heart]

I see an attitude problem here. The archaeologists are excited about more wind turbine sites but the builders are going to avoid the sites.

I see no reason why they can't have both studies and the wind sites. A wind turbine has one hole in the ground per turbine. Both archeology and energy development are important. The whole world is an archeology site. Do BOTH!.

[ApplegateRanch]

Why are the "stunned" by finding a flooded forest in an area I was taught FIFTY YEARS AGO was a sinking coastline?

Have they not bothered to look at underwater topographic maps?

East coast slowly sinking; west slowly coast rising, independent of any actual changes in sea level that would affect both equally, was the accepted theory of the time.

I have not heard that that has changed. Details & time frame, maybe, but not the main principle.

I don't know why. That Naragansett stuff sucks. They should take the Viking brew and be quiet.
