Regarding this link: http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs2/4419.asp.

Do the rock strata represent eons of time? There is a wealth of evidence that the rock strata do not represent vast periods of time. For example, the huge Coconino sandstone formation in the Grand Canyon is about 100 m thick and extends to some 250,000 km2 in area. The large-scale cross-bedding shows that it was all laid down in deep, fast-flowing water in a matter of days.
Just wrong. It's full of fossilized surfaces bearing fossil tracks, and raindrop imprints. It's desert sandstone that took a long time to accumulate.

Evidence that dinosaurs and humans co-existed

What few flimsy items they cite for this do not fill the bill. Some (unmineralized dinosaur bone) aren't even true.

Out-of-sequence fossils

"Plenty" exist, and even evolutionists cite them. But there wasn't room for AiG to cite any, and evolutionists obviously aren't worried. The example buried in the footnote, "Precambrian" pollen, doesn't bear up under examination.

There was a paper on the Coconino sandstone in the most recent CRSQ:

"Evidence that dinosaurs and humans co-existed"

You forgot to mention the hundreds of eyewitness accounts over history, the drawings, and even recent reports of saurapod dinosaurs in the congo.

"Out-of-sequence fossils"

What about out-of-place artifacts? There are many more of those than out-of-sequence fossils.
