"-Simply asserting that soils don't form in a one or two days doesn't cut it. Not to mention it is a complete misrepresentation. What I want you to expand on are your notions that the specimen ridge paleosols can't form in less than a year,"
My guess would be that any of us could find it stated quite firmly that soils can't form in a single year in any of the (hundred?) textbooks on soil science that have been published in the last century or so. Most were likely written by people that actually studied soils.
