Solving the Mystery of the Biblical Flood

wmscott, I wish you good luck at getting published. But, might a "semi-popular" "journal" such as Discover maybe be a better target? I would think that Discover would be, to some degree, peer reviewed.By the way, as of 4/10/02, you have received a rather harsh review at:
Amazon.com /ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F0%5F1/102-1780506-1693707I believe I have not previously posted to this topic. I have not been following it very closely. Maybe I'll now get back to reading the entire thing, and maybe it's "Talk Origins" counterparts.Regards,

Percy, directed to wmscott: I think Discover magazine would be an ironic choice for submission of an article by you, since they just ran an article about people suffering similar delusions in the April, 2002, issue ( Discover Financial Services ).

I didn't dig into the pile of various mags, to re-read that article, but I seem to recall that there was an example of one of the "delutionals" turning out to have a valid concept, a work of genius.Moose------------------

The ice in Antartica isn't the issue if, as you say it has not changed. (I didn't look it up, but it isn't relevant to my argument anyway) The massive glaciers that formed in the northern hemishere would jerk water out of the ocean causing a low, then during the interstitials as they melted, put water back, causing a sea-level high. These changes are slow enough that coral could form just fine. Now, as the glaciers have once again receeded we have a low ocean and see dead coral above sea level. You seem to go on and explain this effect yourself.

(my bolds)I'm really not into the debate on this specific topic, but I thought it would be good for someone on the evolution side to point out the above quirk in your statement.Wouldn't the glacial recession result in a high sea level?Moose
