... period as the gravel. The stone is a hard cemented sandstone of a similar nature, as far as can be ascertained, as sarsen stones which are found in various places in surface deposits in southern England and western Europe and were much used in the building of megalithic monuments. Although a lot of work has apparently been done on the chemical and physical nature of such stone, it is obvious that the experts still have no idea of how, where or when such formations came into existence. It depends on silica being deposited out of solution in order to bind the original sand grains together and over half a dozen theories as to how this could take place have been put ...
402. Directed Mutation in Bacteria [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... of acquired characteristics'. It is ironic that scientists in the past have been pilloried for daring to suggest such things [5 ,6 ]. Other biologists will not yet consider the effect seriously until there is more proof, and a valid mechanism, and even then they are likely to consider the phenomenon applies only to the relatively simple chemical world of bacteria. A batch of letters to Nature [7 ] all made great effort to explain the heterodox results away. A further paper by another researcher [8 ] which gave even more suggestive results for anticipatory mutation, was again argued against in Nature [9 ] but Cairns had counterarguments and an explanation for the vehement defence ...
403. The Core Ejection Hypothesis [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... There is no reason why they should, even though the electrons are much more mobile than the ions and presumably are free to dash about in all directions in the liquid. However, if you put electrodes in the liquid and apply a voltage, however small, there will be a flow of electrons and ions in opposite directions, causing chemical reactions and the emission of gas. If there is a force of some kind acting on the particles then there is likely to be charge separation, although in this case this causes a current flow, not bulk charge separation. Ellenberger stated that the immense attraction between opposite charges absolutely precludes the possibility that bulk charge separation would occur' ...
404. In Northern China. Ch.5 Tidal Wave (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... , a mixture of clay and sand, the deposition of which beloqgs to the same stage as the fossils; this reddish loam occurs extensively all over northern China. Teilhard and Young concluded that the observed coloration "can neither be a quality inherited from the original material of which the loams are composed, nor a condition brought about by slow chemical processes long after their formation." The coloration of this widespread formation being of some extraneous and unexplained origin, the only definite statement concerning it is that some violent change of climate, in itself not the cause of the change of colour, occurred "immediately before the deposition of red loams-or soon after the deposition."7 Similar ...
405. Evaporating Oceans. Ch.9 Axis Shifted (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... an electromagnet. An extraneous electromagnetic field that would produce a thermal effect on the earth would also shift the terrestrial axis and change the rotational velocity of the earth. This, in turn, would have a thermal effect, since the energy of motion would be converted into heat, and possibly into other forms of energy-electrical, magnetic, and chemical, as well as nuclear -with ensuing radioactivity, again with thermal effect. An extraneous mechanical or electromagnetic force would produce both phenomena, which are prerequisites of a glacial period: the astronomical or geographical shifting of the axis and the heating of the globe. The astronomers who oppose the theory of cosmic catastrophes must likewise reject the theory of ...
406. Ice Caps, Continental Shift and the Break up of Pangaea [Journals] [SIS Review]
... hot saturated rock is as follows: dead matter from sea life slurried in ocean water flows under granite at the ocean bottom, i.e . at the level of compressive failure of granite. Under the hot aqueous and catalytic rock environment this dead matter forms oil and water fairly rapidly, with the latter removed by insolubility in oil. Chemical separation of oil and water from the dead matter is exothermic and occurs spontaneously in the hot water saturated rock. Gravity and heat are thus the driving forces for this cycle of continuous burial and conversion of dead sea matter into oil and water, slurried in salt water to flow under the crust, then upward into suitable separate traps for ...

... summer waters. Coal was a hydrophobic gelatinous material which floated initially, later accumulating minerals and sinking, to stifle the new growth of young seedlings. The entire Carboniferous Era is just the record of one monumental event in Earth's history, an event which has occurred over and over, each time restructuring the Earth's surface, not only physically but chemically, and requiring a simultaneous drastic change in all life forms to be able to adapt to a completely new environment. An animated discussion followed but was curtailed by shortage of time. It was obvious that even for those used to accepting the idea of Velikovsky's massive extra-terrestrial catastrophes, a period of consideration would be needed in order to assimilate ...
409. On Number As Artifact (Part 1: Introduction) [Journals] [Horus]
... a considerable extent it is the astronomers who have led the way. Archaeoastronomy is now a recognized discipline. There simply is no recognized equivalent so far in musicology, which continues to falter on a linguistic base. The groundwork for change is being laid. Number is a valid cognitive tool, in historical pursuits as in engineering, architecture, chemistry, and economics. The Borroff and McClain findings may well serve to encourage scholars of early literature and other records to take numerical references seriously. As McClain notes at the beginning of The Myth of Invariance, "Historians of science have barely begun to cope with certain kinds of material available to them. "( 8 ) The kinds ...
410. Error Probes, Truth Probes, and Space Probes [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... unpolished (white) rice contained a toxin or microbe that caused beri-beri. However, Grijns thought it was due to something that was not in the white rice. Both had data to support their claims. Eventually it was found that white rice was missing vitamin B1 [see the Web site "Thiamine History" at http://chemistry.gsu.edu/glactone/vitamins/b1/] Astronomers on the other hand, assign non-Newtonian movements to so-called Dark Matter. New ideas (ie. Electric universe) suggest that non-Newtonian movements are due to gravity not really being there! Newton's mistake was assuming that the domain of gravity was universal. [Mel's editorial can ...
