Personally, I could hardly care less whether mammoths lived in cold or mild climates.

Then your behavior makes little sense. The webpage you made a point of linking, posting and defending didn't argue that mammoths lived in "mild" climates. Few in fact would argue that the climates they inhabited probably varied (seasonally and/or through migration) between cold and somewhat "mild". Your author argued that mammoths lived in a TROPICAL environment, and were SUDDENLY FROZEN by a global catastrophe of Velikovskian, planets in near collision, proportions.

Defending such a WILD, nutball theory is hardly consistent with someone who "could hardly care less" if it was true or credible.

Now it becomes more clear. Maybe you are not as much a liar as just careless. I did not post it or any links. Go back and look.

I replied to an attack against it, but really am skeptical of the tropical aspect myself. I did however think the evidence supporting mammoths being flash frozen was agreed upon. I am not sure how else the well preserved specimen can be accounted for.
