You know, according to my previous swags or subjective interpretations and subsequent rants on behalf of this weird notion of something very big and icy smacking into us from the rear, and glancing off after conceivably creating our Arctic ocean basin, causing loads of antipodes such as Antarctica, as well as increasing our seasonal tilt as of 12,900 BP, sounds about right. http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/57790/title/Signs_of_giant_comet_impacts_found_in_cores_ "In the April Geology, researchers describe finding chemical similarities in the cores between a layer corresponding to 1908, when a 50,000-metric-ton extraterrestrial object exploded over Tunguska, Siberia, and a deeper stratum dating to 12,900 years ago." ~ BG |
