... that threshold. Wally Anfiloff of Spence, the author of the only genuine S&T article we published on April 1, has a sweeping alternative theory about the Earth's geology. A physics and geology graduate with 20 years government service, Wally says he is "the world's top tectonics expert" and ASIO has been trying to entice him ... .. ) Amy Acheson Thoth@Whidbey.com- DESERT GEMS by Walter Radtke This just orbited across my monitor & I thought I'd pass it on. An Italian geologist has taken a close look at the beautiful translucent scarab in a pectoral, or necklace, found by Howard Carter among the treasures of Tutankhamen. Carter thought the scarab ...
562. Shamir [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Therefore they were present in nature since the beginning; and since radioactive elements have a limited lifetime because of disintegration through radioactivity, there must have been more radium in the geological past. .. . Lead is also the substance that protects best against the damaging effect of radium and other radionuclide irradiation; and thus laboratory radium is preserved in ... outlines the history of these phenomena from their discovery in the 19th century to the 1970s. Can the earth's age be measured by radioactive dating of its rocks, as most geologists and geochemists believe'? Seeking an answer, Robert V. Gentry (then Assistant Professor of Physics at Columbia Union College in Maryland, later in the Chemistry Division ...

... three small earthquakes recorded during the 1960s. They are still puzzled, however, as to how such a large eruption happened in so short a time. How many past geological phenomena occurred far more quickly than orthodox theory allows? Tidal Earthquakes source: New Scientist 30.9 .89, p. 31 An analysis of the times of ... the cool plate edges sinking. This theory does not explain the Deccan traps in India, where vast outpourings of lava are seen as sudden and catastrophic, even by orthodox geologists. Now two geologists have come up with a theory which explains both slow spreading at rifts and sudden outpourings but without any mention of convection currents. The basic premise ...

... adjacent ones carved with faces, slight shoulders and holes for horns. My guide book said that they also bore swords slung diagonally across their backs. One had a diagonal geological flaw across its back which almost made me miss the implication of what was indeed carved down the length of its front. This could be interpreted as a sword but ... of the last Ice Age the sea level around Britain was about 400ft below its present level and Ireland and Britain were once an integral part of the continent. The German geologist, Wildving, in 1911 discovered evidence of a late 2nd millennium BC (end of LB era) catastrophe which flattened forests with great violence and the North Sea rushed ...
565. The Celestial Dynamics of "Worlds in Collision" [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in another book, Prehistory and Earth Models (London: Max Parrish, 1966), Dr Cook has had the audacity and temerity to take on the entire historical, geological and geophysical establishments, and has reviewed in great depth and detail every radioactive dating method, short-term and long-term. After several years making up my mind, I have ... have that type of change in the orbit. And we would be in precisely the same situation as people at the end of the 19th century, who were faced with geologists who wanted to set the history of the Earth at hundreds of millions of years or even thousands of millions of years to explain the record they found in the rocks ...
566. Still Facing Many Problems (Part II) [Journals] [Kronos]
... . These obstacles, (1 ) "the uncertainty in identifying which aspects of the radiation budget are critical to climatic change" and (2 ) "the uncertainty of geological chronology", were resolved in a landmark article by J. D. Hays, John Imbrie, and N. J. Shackleton, "Variations in the Earth's ... for cast iron are used, the amount of cast iron is only 3.4 pounds, not five pounds.] According to Velikovsky: "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 ...

... referred to. And one possibility in particular which springs to mind is that the magnetic reversal may have resulted not from changing currents within the earth's core, but from a geologically or astronomically induced flip-over' of the earth itself * (producing a reversed relationship between the dynamo- rotor' of the spinning earth and the magnetic stator' of its ... be a hoax. This means that Roland T. Bird who wrote of the discovery in the learned journal NATURAL HISTORY and Prof A. E. Wilder Smith and the geologist who investigated and took the photographs have put their names at risk. Will similar tests be carried out with the footprints discovered by Leakey? Is the giant footprint in ...
568. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Data is now coming back from the spacecraft Cassini-Huygens that Titan's surface appears to be crater-free, indicating that impact scars have been eroded or filled in and Titan must therefore be geologically active. It was thought to have a thick crust of water, ice and ammonia, but evidence now indicates that it is covered by a layer of organic' ... . Harlen Bretz as the draining of the ice age' lake Missoula, which devastated a huge area of the north west. For years Bretz was ridiculed, but eventually geologists accepted such events and his most vociferous critic actually apologised. Was this a unique event? Super Tsunami (New Scientist, 11.9 .04, p. ...

... created, some radiation might remain after thousands of years. One could estimate the magnitude of the discharge from the amount and kind of residues. I'd think that given the geology of a site, one could also search for "combustion products" typical of such temperatures in the local surface and building materials. Please understand that I am a ... of many hydrogen bombs...". He claimed in advance that some craters on the Moon would exhibit enhanced radioactivity. That was later discovered to the surprise of geologists. The specific appearance and action of the electric discharge is the realm of the plasma physicist and high-voltage electrical engineering. The tornadic effects "causing crowds of warriors with ...
570. Velikovsky in America [Journals] [Aeon]
... pointed out that, according to Genesis, the Dead Sea had been a plain, the valley of Siddim, at the time of Abraham. He wondered what sort of geological catastrophe had transformed it into a lake by the time of the Exodus, just a few generations later. He also recalled that on his fortieth birthday, five years ... some protection to the public from the unsound, and a consequent greater interest in the best scientific writing." After some discussion, the panel accepted the suggestion of Harvard geologist Kirtley Mather. Underlying the plan was the realization that most members of the general public, and even some publishers, are unable to distinguish the "plausible but false ...
