Very neat. I've only just scanned the article, will definitely read it in full later, but where precisely is the comet/meteor supposed to have landed?

Part 2 - "Decimate" means to destroy every tenth part - therefore, when 90% of the population is killed, then there is no "decimation"...
Interesting article...and to think people still call on the stars for guidance after all of these years.

It is always a mystery to me how we as historians cannot so easily accept historical events or processes which we have not seen ourselves...so muych of our history is "polictical" or "religious," and we tend to downplay the role that our geography and geology plays in the history of mankind and of the Earth. We are especially hard-pressed to accept catastrophic events, except in those times during which we have witnessed something horrific on our own.

This caught my eye towards the end:
Or, and here we take the Hoyle et al. suggestion, the bodies impacting in the Pacific region, including the northern China and Mongolian region, may have brought a fresh resupply of bacterial material, possibly characterized by mutations.
Is that saying that the extraterretrial bodies carried bacteria from outer space?

I believe there has been a lot of research on the Little Ice Age that occured about 1100-1200 in Europe and most people have posited that it was caused by meteor or comet impacts which threw up enough debris and particles into the atmosphere to cause climate change.

"...in the year 1178 A.D. four wise men of Canterbury were sitting outside on a clear and calm 18th June night, a half Moon standing placidly in the starry sky...."
My curiosity raised, I checked some of my astronomy software and at first thought the four wise men of Canterbury were a bit, well, "lune-y". But then I remembered: the date, owing to a change in calendars since then would actually be June 9 and a waning gibbous moon was running low over the southerly skies during this night.

...the El Niño current is cold, so a strong El Niño wipes out most of this shellfish... El Nino is by definition warm, not cold. The credibility of his argument is not helped by getting something so basic so wrong.
El Niño a warm current of water
El Niño (Spanish name for the male child), initially referred to a weak, warm current appearing annually around Christmas time along the coast of Ecuador and Peru and lasting only a few weeks to a month or more. Every three to seven years, an El Niño event may last for many months, having significant economic and atmospheric consequences worldwide.

and its colour change slowly from light brilliant to a darker reddish tone. Such a colour remained for all the time the Moon was visible during that phase. Sounds exactly the reddish "Earthlight" that colors the eclipsed Moon, to me...
During total Lunar eclipse, looking back at Earth, someone on the Moon would see the Earth's atmosphere as a ring of reddish "sunset" light surrounding a dark Earth. It is that reddish "sunset Earthlight" that imparts the reddish/coppery color to the eclipsed (shadowed) Moon...
