... thought to be of the right size and composition to have been debris from the Santorini (There) eruption in the eastern Mediterranean. Halley, Another Surprise sources: NATURE 321, pp.259-366; NEW SCIENTIST 22.5 .86, p.30 There is an excellent Supplement in NATURE giving details of the physics, chemistry and geology of Halley's comet as deduced from the data from the Giotto probe (early data was given by us in C & C WORKSHOP 1986:1 , p.29; see also letters on pp.37-38). Among the surface features of Halley's comet are raised circles resembling craters. The craters have hollow slopes much like the ones ...
... (debris of all sizes)? William K. Hartmann, in Moon and Planets, 2 ed., (Belmont, CA 1983), p. 380, points out that, "The terrain on Deimos seems blanketed with boulders protruding here and there..." J. Guest, et. al., in Planetary Geology, (NY 1979), p. 192, informs us that many of these boulders are "house sized boulders." Where did these boulders come from? One would suspect they are the debris produced from impact cratering. But this is extremely improbable because to produce craters large enough to eject house sized rocks requires impact with forces ...
923. Return to the Paelo-Saturnian Ssystem (Forum) [Journals] [Aeon]
... with is the lack of an article that concisely tells the entire Saturnian story from beginning to end, especially one that would delineate the following: What actually was perceived by our early ancestors from the age of darkness [39] onwards; What was actually- that is physically- happening in the world during this time; What astronomical and geological events were taking place to cause the phenomena described. If such an article has not yet been written, I'm sure the readers of this periodical would appreciate such a venture. In general, I have tons of questions, most of which have probably already been dealt with. Nevertheless, I feel bound to ask them. According to ...
924. A Comprehensive Theory on Aging, Gigantism and Longevity [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... , and Cenozoic (ceno- recent) time. It is central here that the classical definition of these eras, each requiring hundreds of millions of years, be sharply discounted. The authors do see value in the conventional divisions; they call, however, for a full reinterpretation of the timing process. A defense for reanalysis of the geologic time column is far beyond the scope and intent of this essay: hence our opinions and our conclusions in this regard must be stated without defense.8 Paleozoic strata are characterized by the simplicity of life forms found therein. They are reckoned to be pre-Adamic. Mesozoic strata are laden with fossils and graded waterborne material. Primary, among ...

... the light of these theories, we may well wonder to what extent the terrifying experiences of world catastrophes have be come part of the human soul and how much, if any, of it can be traced in our beliefs, emotions, and behaviour as directed from the unconscious or subconscious strata of the mind.1 In the present volume geological and paleontological material was discussed only occasionally- when we dealt with rocks being carried considerable distances and placed on top of foreign formations; with mammoths being killed in a catastrophe; with the c hanges of climate, the geographical contours of the polar ice in the past, moraines in Africa, and remains of human culture in the north ...

... e . interglacial thousands of years prior to that ocean water becoming warm. Unlike Mewhinney, Kerr understood that this would be impossible and admitted the astronomical theory would have to be dumped. Mewhinney should tell Kerr he doesn't know what he is talking about. K.R . Ludwig, et al., of the U.S . Geological Survey in Colorado writing in Nature in a letter in response to N.J . Shakleton, also haven't gotten Mewhinney's message wherein they write: "The Devils Hole dates... remain a challenge to the Milankovitch hypothesis"73 Mewhinney knows this is all untrue, and that Devils Hole is not a challenge to Milankovitch. Perhaps ...
927. Thoth Vol III, No. 1: Jan 15, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... fragments that could be ejected from planets by impact mechanisms would have experienced such a high degree of shock that they would be pulverized, melted, or even vaporized. Yet no other natural means of meteoroid ejection seems possible. The energy of rapidly expanding gases during volcanic eruptions is too small to accelerate fragments to planetary escape velocities, and other geologic phenomena are even less capable launching mechanisms." The conventional view is that a meteorite impact released the rocks from Mars millions of years ago. Vickery and Melosh, for example, offered the following opinion: "The dynamically most plausible explanation for the martian origin of the SNC meteorites is that they were ejected from Mars in a single ...
928. The Blasted Career of the Mighty Swordsman [Books] [de Grazia books]
... , and also with the legend concerning the removal of Venus from an orbit that threatened Earth. As was remarked in Chapter Six, a heavy contamination of the carbon constant was noted to have occurred in the 8th century B.C . This might result from several causes, granted the near presence of Mars in the sky. Electrical and geological disturbances on Earth and material and atmospheric exchanges among Earth, Moon and mars are suggested. Electrical charges can assemble and disassemble molecules of many different types. As a smaller planet, Mars was much larger than Moon and might devastate it, but be equally devastated in turn by Earth. In the heavens, even more than among men ...

... evolved by a mechanism other than neo-Darwinism. "5 Remine shows, "According to Maynard Smith, if a population actually changes faster than predicted, then Darwinism must be mistaken. "6 Nevertheless, as was pointed out, the fossil record clearly indicates that species remain static for long periods of time and new species appear almost in the geological blink of an eye. There appear to be extremely few lineages. For example, Stephen Jay Gould recently has proudly pointed to the evolution of a lineage of land animals, Mesonychids, to whales, as clear-cut proof of the lineage of whale evolution.7 However, Carl Zimmer states: "The molecular phylogeny of whales is . ...

... and of those which have been used against them by orthodox scientists. About a decade ago, I attended a lecture by a distinguished paleontologist, a good man whose name I do not choose to divulge. The burden of his excellent talk was that, over the last few years, the view had been gaining ground among paleontologists that the geological epochs were punctuated by catastrophes on a global scale. In particular he dwelt on the extinction of the vast majority of all life-forms at the end of the Permian era, and alluded to that of the dinosaurs some sixty-five million years ago. In the questioned period, I `opened my big mouth, ' as they say, in ...
