What area of sea floor would they need to cover to produce an amount that could build the chalk cliffs

The point is, they would be dead on the sea floor. They have to be on the surface layers of the sea where there is enough light for photosynthesis while they are alive, during a bloom.

When they die they slowly sink to the bottom and over time build up into thicker and thicker layers that are solidifying at the bottom.

I'm considering that perhaps where they collect at the bottom of the ocean that they are in that condition of "ooze" and might be transportable.

It probably would be transportable if there were currents there at the bottom of the ocean.

How would the ocean level getting deeper because of "the flood" create currents, at the bottom of the ocean, that would move the primordial ooze some place else and solidify it once it got there?

That's it? You just make your assertion and think someone...anyone is going to accept it?

This is a Science Forum.

I take a lot of abuse for believing Him but I believe Him and I'm not going to stop believing Him.

So, that is your argument. You could save yourself a lot of typing if you just post that.
