... which produce the same effects even today, let us consider the creation of the fossil forests of Yellowstone Park, described in Part One. In the U.S . Geological Survey, 1912, Trees and Vegetation, Arnold Hague mentions about 2,000 springs in the Yellowstone area, mostly alkaline hot water springs, and states that 20 ... contact with the coal. The occurrences-one on the south side of Owl Creek Mountain, and another on the southwest side of the Wind River Mountain- are interpreted by most geologists as being the result of thrust faulting that took place when the mountains were uplifted." Coal beds are found below layers of limestone. Limestone was created in the ...

... species of circumpolar flora, including beech, conifers, cypress, liquidambar, magnolia, maple, oak, poplar and sequoia) [1 ] was growing there in the geologically very recent past - far more recently than 50 million years ago. At many places north of the present Arctic Circle, remnants of this vegetation still lie in situ ... some permafrost areas subsoil layers exist which are alternately frozen and not frozen, the latter being maintained at a higher temperature by circulating underground water' [28]. Russian geologists have termed such areas taliks' [29]. Taken as a whole, the scale and singularity of the permafrost formation' is so great that Mel'nikov and Grave ...
383. Shapley, Velikovsky And the Scientific Spirit [Journals] [Pensee]
... he had come to believe that there were changes in the constitution of the solar system. He now had written down his findings, drawn from mankind's ancient records, from geological treatises, and the like, and asked that Shapley might be good enough to read his manuscript and, if he thought the data sufficient, to advise about having ... the book rechecked by three new readers. Velikovsky was advised that two said Publish, one said Don't. Meanwhile, the article in Harper's had started winds of controversy among geologists, archaeologists and others who could not possibly have read Velikovsky's yet unpublished Worlds in Collision. Significantly, one instrument of inquisition was Science News Letter, which reported its ...

... been re-arranged by the movement of ice. These in particular put a huge exclamation point the long, narrow channels, whose formation COULDN'T be due to ice movement or any geological process "deep within the planet," as the planetary geologists had claimed. Where melting has occurred and sheets of ice have been randomly shifted about, you can ... get a very dramatic picture as to how irregular the spacing is between the broken fragments under such conditions-literally nothing like the thousands of narrow channels running side by side, some up to hundreds of kilometers- which geologists had tried to explain by fracturing and subtle movements of the ice. And notice that in the fields of formerly melted ice, after ...

Perhaps our greatest progress over the past year resulted from liaison with such distinguished experts as astronomer Halton Arp, plasma cosmologist Tony Peratt, and geologist Robert Schoch. Our plan is to expand and accelerate such liaison in the coming months as we look ahead to the July world conference. In this regard, we ...

... local and might have been recorded by other nations. Finding the evidence he sought in abundance, he plunged into ten more years of research, synthesising history, myth, geology and astronomy into an extraordinary book, Worlds in Collision. The "highly unscientific fury" which ensued was to lead Velikovsky into many years of violent controversy, which ... his long and eventful career. He lectured at NASA research centres, at colleges and universities - including Harvard and Princeton; he debated with a new generation of astronomers, geologists, biologists and historians on public platforms and in print, at the same time developing the implications of his theories in many fields. He avoided no challenge, even ...

Gaudeamus igitur, and let us congratulate the USGS for their courage, To finish, a prediction. Also in the USGS more and more geologists realise that ignorant and superstitious are those people who accept on faith the untested opinions of others.

Again, and again the world was a playground for Vulcan and Poseidon, the elementary forces of melting rock and trespassing sea. But when all is told, ... came at first as "a shocking discovery," because it appeared "a serious obstacle to the belief that the Earth was originally molten." Later, however, geologists, by placing some half a billion years between the origin of the earth and the early ice phenomena, allowed the rocks to cool off first. Then in Cambrian ...
