I just waded through the "Lake Varve Sediments and the Great Flood" discussion and it was painful. I do not know how you guys (Percy, jar, edge, anglagard and the rest) can interpret posts like the ones from reversespin.
for example from message #108
reversespin writes:
In respect to a kettle lake you have the topography like a bowl like say lake suitisu. I suspect more kettle lakes would have varves similar to lake suitsu only because of their topography in respect to how varves are being expressed do to the waves sweeping organics diatoms etc... from the watershed everytime you have a storm, so multitude of varves support the creationists young earth senerio because they are not all annual varves.
I think here your looking that all are annual varves however due to the topography it more like a miners bowl as the waves roll to shore how would not the currents not sweep pollen clays toward the center to be expressed as multitudes of varves as they sorted by liquefaction over the years. When the flood waters washed off the continents until the plants restablished the earth you could only have the watershed contributing to the varves being formed so what your looking at is the majority of those varves are not annual varves the last 5400 years since the biblical flood no doubt contributed additional varves.
and this from message #111

You have the russian study of siberian tropical plants living in the yucon pennisula, all dating less than 9760 years. Then you have the purdue university study expressing the artic sea temp not air temp was once 73 degrees F. thats only approximately 7 degrees cooler than the oceanwater at the equator today. The links if your interested are on Razd correlations thread but the point is Greenland ice cores could not of existed 9,760 years because tropical plants were thriving up in the Artic circle and nothing older than 9760 years was dated by 14 C dating in the yucan pennisula.
Its not as if the mountain of ice in greenland where the ice cores are taken is held up by granite mountains like ice capped mountains you might see in Seattle Washington, etc... The russian study and the purdue study raises questions how a mountain of ice could of existed if near tropical temperatures of the waters of the ocean even north of Greenland, etc...
P.S. I suspect those stories that the vickings inhabited a Greenland are more correct than the scientific myths that greenlands been a mountain of ice for 100's of thousands of years.
To me, these are not just poor writing skills, but almost completely incomprehensible. Could reversespin read what he wrote, out-loud, without bursting out laughing? Everything he wrote is gibberish.
It reminds me of trying to interpret what is written in many parts of the Bible. Maybe that is why they write that way?
I guess I'm just a dumb entomologist that can't understand their scientific language!
