As I read this post I started to think about earlier posts on the Carolina Bays. My theory on them was that huge blocks of ice had been thrown that far from the boloid strikes in Lake Michigan and then melted. I think that the researchers in this article should consider the possibilit of boloid strikes in Lake Michigan causing their phenomena. I tried to find some pictures that might be similar to the Carolina Bays. Instead I found this link. If you look at the topographic map (third one down), it looks to me as if a great quantity of water was sloshed out of the southern tip of Lake Michigan, leaving a ridge of elevated land as the waters receded. Time to post the Firestone book again.
