AIG does piss poor pseudo-science and counts on the ignorance of folk like you to get away with it.

In the Hornton Quarries in England fossilized wood has been found in rock that has been dated at 189 million years old. This wood is assumed to be the same age as the rock it’s buried in, so no secular scientist would ever think of getting a radiocarbon date from this fossilized wood. Andrew Snelling a Creationist Associate Professor of Geology did such a test. The radiocarbon dating results were extremely close to the Geochron result 24,005+-600 years. This is much lower than the assumed age of 189 million years. The rest of the results can be found here:

Any creationist who knows his (or her) stuff will light up when you mention radiocarbon dating. I don’t consider myself an expert, but I know that radiocarbon dating limits the ages of once living things to ages more reasonably close to an approximately 6k yr old Earth.
That, my friend is simply a con-job. AIG is trying to baffle you with bullshit and misdirect your attention while they palm the pea and steal your money.
I am very glad you posted it.
Here is how they conned you.
They intentionally used a test that can ONLY give a false answer.
This is totally dishonest.
If you measure something that is outside the limits of the measuring tool you are using, you WILL get false results.
Radio-Carbon dating is accurate to a maximum of about 50,000 years, maybe 60,000 years using
today's best equipment.
AIG knows that.

AIG counts on their audience's ignorance to get away with con-tricks like that.
AIG lies.
AIG is VERY successful though at getting the money out of Christian pockets.
Did AIG then try dating the sample using other methods that might just give them a correct answer? Hell no! They had
the answer they wanted and to hell with truth, honesty or integrity.
AIG lies.
