I think the plate tectonics discussion looks pretty good. It, however, is pretty marginal to this topic and would be better served by a specific to plate tectonics topic. Hint: Someone
propose such - Put a quality topic title on it and link back to a good place in this topic.
This topic seems to have long ago run its on-topic course. Closing it down. If someone has some fossils on mountains point they wish to pursue further, it's also
new topic time.
Closing this one down in about 15 minutes.

It really helps moderators figure out if a topic is disintegrating because of general misbehavior versus someone in particular if the originally non-misbehaving members kept it that way. When everyone is prickly and argumentative and off-topic and personal then it's just too difficult to tell. We have neither infinite time to untie the Gordian knot, nor the wisdom of Solomon.
There used to be a comedian who presented his ideas for a better world, and one of them was to arm everyone on the highway with little rubber dart guns. Every time you see a driver doing something stupid, you fire a little dart at his car. When a state trooper sees someone driving down the highway with a bunch of darts all over his car he pulls him over for being an idiot.
Please make it easy to tell you apart from the idiots.
