232. Confessions Of A Philosophical Velikovskian [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... overall theory which gains general acceptance by specialists in the field. Such theories, which Kuhn labelled `paradigms', are promulgated universally by those professionally qualified in the relevant subject, and so far from attempts being made to falsify paradigms, efforts are devoted to forcing nature to fit into them. Every paradigm has always given rise to some anomalies; had people immediately rejected them when this occurred, as Popper appears to recommend, science would never have got off the ground. However, by and by, the paradigm is so burdened by anomalies that there comes about a revolutionary situation, in which a lot of competing theories are in the air; until eventually a new paradigm ...

... have split Pangaea and caused North and South America to separate from Eurasia and Africa. He also agreed that duToit's sphenochasm (see Appendix 1 for definitions for this, mostly Carey's, terminology) of 28 degrees was likely correct. It was Eardley who published duToit's ideas in his 1961 article on the Arctic Basin [9 ]. The gravity anomaly studies of Farrand and Gajda [10] for Northeastern Canada, and Heiskanen and Vening-Meinesz [11] for Fennoscandia demonstrated a sudden (and simultaneous) denudation of ice from the shield areas of Laurasia. Eardley's Presidential Address [12] in the 1964 meetings of the American Geological Society included studies of shoreline adjustments to be correlated with these ...
234. Horizons [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... that time several projects have been inaugurated to test the chronology of the ancient world. These include: (i ) the compilation of a comprehensive reference volume containing all known radio-carbon tests made on samples falling in the time period from 2000 BC to 1 AD (plus analytical commentary); (ii) a catalogue of Egyptian and Assyrian chronological anomalies; and (iii) an analysis of Sothic dating and its effect on the history of Egypt. The results of these projects will be made available in the form of ISIS Occasional Publications during 1987, 1988 and 1989. A major survey of archaeological anomalies from Europe and the Near East will also be published as part of the first ...

... in Swedish biotite. No conclusion is given as to their possible origin, but it is noted that some of these giant haloes have bleached circles around their centers. These circles seem related to the enigmatic dwarf haloes known and unexplained for more than 50 years. [The "halo" problem is not as trivial as it may seem because anomalous radioactivity, presumably with a very short half-life, should not be present in bill ion-year-old rocks, such as the Madagascar micas. One implication: geological dating is all wrong! Ed.] (Gentry, R. V., et al; "Implications on Unknown Radioactivity of Giant and Dwarf Haloes in Scandinavian Rocks", Nature ...
237. Ice Cores and Catastrophism [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... whether Velikovsky's historical cosmic catastrophe scenario is correct or incorrect, this ice core evidence strikes a body blow at most areas in the Velikovskian field. I expect the historians to take up the challenge alongside the scientists. Speaking for myself, I have been convinced by reasoned argument that some kind of revised chronology is a must (because of the anomalies of the orthodox one) and the idea of a revised chronology is not something I would abandon lightly. Evidence of a scientific nature marshalled in support of the orthodox chronology demands our urgent scrutiny, and should be discussed. How is the ice core date for the eruption of Thera derived? In a paper in NATURE in 1980, ...

239. Long Term Violation of Uniformitarianism Demonstrated by Fossil Discoveries in Polar Regions [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... periods of time within the last 100 million years. Impact occurrences, whether by meteorites or comets, are not the only or even primary exceptions to uniform geological processes. While the fossil discoveries referred to in this address are not more recent than the Pliocene (2 to 5 million years ago (MYA)), I think that some anomalies discussed in Earth in Upheaval (e .g . hippopotami splashing in the Thames during Pleistocene interglacials) have the potential to bring the analysis down into late Pleistocene times or even the Holocene. Whatever explanation lay behind the warming of the polar latitudes in geologically recent times, continental drift no longer explains' the the tropics in the arctic ...
240. Tektites, Wildfires and the Extinction of the Dinosaurs [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... occurred 65 million years ago (by conventional dating), bringing to a close the Cretaceous Period and wiping out the dinosaurs and many other groups of living creatures. As discussed in SIS Review VII:A , pp.9-20, the Alvarez team produced the first scientifically acceptable evidence of the cause, in the form of an iridium abundance anomaly at the Cretaceous-Tertiary (C-T) boundary. This could have resulted from the impact of an asteroid or comet, or from volcanic action. Which was it? Shocked quartz grains found by Bruce Bohor and colleagues of the U.S . Geological Survey seemed almost conclusive evidence of an impact at this time. Even staunch opponents of the ...
