... glacial periods in the recent [Quaternary] Ice Age, in each of which the ice grew and then retreated in the interglacial stage, the globe, in a recent geological epoch, must have been repeatedly so hot that the portion of the heat the oceans received would have sufficed to turn an immense mountain of iron, five times the ... , a quantity of heat was needed that would raise to the melting point a mass of iron five times greater than the mass of the ice. Tyndall argued that the geologists should substitute the hot iron for the cold ice, and they would get an idea of the high temperature immediately preceding the Ice Age and the formation of the glacial ...

Juergens argues that the Earth's surface potential is highly negative and low [26]. Suppose that it is lowered further. Rampant radioactivity ... fugitives from grave disasters in the Near East [8 ]. The famous Seven Hills of Rome themselves may be a set of extinct volcanos, according to an early French geologist. Since few scientists believe in cosmic thunderbolts, this report of Lake Bolsena has never been thoroughly investigated. The Italian anthropologist-geologist Leonardi assured me that the lake basin is ...

No satisfactory explanation has yet been offered for the extent and location of these extraordinary glaciers. . . . Glaciers, almost unbelievable because of their ... and size, certainly did not form in deserts...."3 Notes 1. C. O. Dunbar, Historical Geologv (1949), pp. 298-9(). 2. Ibid., p. 298. 3. R.T .

The newsletter includes continuing discussion of a revolutionary model called "the Saturn ... going on, leaving the same enigmatic surface patterns we see elsewhere in the solar system. And yet, despite the most stunning and direct evidence for electrical phenomena, planetary geologists continue to call the activity on Io "volcanoes". Prior to NASA's close-up looks, however, only Wallace Thornhill, the leading pioneer of the Electric Universe, ...
