Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
No, it's more reasonable to believe that the cyclic structure of the layers is due to a local depositional enviroment within a massive global flood that sorted out the sand and the clay in the pattern as found.
​
Probably, much faster than that.
​
How fast does clay settle in water? I'll let you consider "clay" to mean only particles smaller than four microns in diameter and not confine you to phyllosilicates. Give me a number - centimeters per second, or units of your choosing.

Re: General nature of global flood enviroment.
That kind of thing doesn't happen in a single year.
​
And particularly not while there's a flood in progress. It sort of limits the evaporation.

Re: Nanofossil Deposits
Great post over on the Debate, RAZD!
​
The oil industry does rely on forams a lot in appropriate formations - like the US Gulf Coast. I once spent several days on a gas well that had been drilled specifically to the Bolivina mexicana zone - 'cause the geologists knew that's where the gas was.
​
http://www.gomr.mms.gov/homepg/whatsnew/papers/biochart.pdf shows how well this field is developed: a Floode didn't do all that...

Re: Magic Water
The weight of the water sank down the thin crusts into the molten core, pushing up the mountain ranges like the Himalayas as the tetonic plates gave way...
​
Which is more dense, Buzsaw - water or rock? Will a mile of water balance a mile of rock?
​
The above is not falsifiable...
​
Oh yeah? It's already falsified.
