where is the flood layer? Maybe? . So, is it at all possible since most of the world is covered by water, a lot of the evidence of the flood could be barried under the ocean floors, if in fact we aren't finding any evidence on land? Or "enough" on land? Im sure almost everywhere in the world has been under water at some point in time and that there are areas that would say so but can it be certain it wasn't all at once at some point in time?
Chuck, from a creationist POV, two things:
The credibility of the Biblical record depends heavily on how researchers interpret what is observed.
So Chuck, what I'm saying is, don't get snowed under by flood skeptics without consideration of the above. I suggest you go to some of the archived flood threads where some of these things have been debated, bearing in mind that creationists may have been limited some in science forums, creationism not being accepted as valid science for science forum airing.
ABE: To answer your question as to where the flood layer is, it's rather random, due to the sudden catastrophic breakup of it due to erosion, uplift, volcanic action, tsunamis, etc. Much of the tectonic and other activity would have continued after the rains stopped and even after they receeded. The activity would have tapered off rather gradually, post flood, due to the unstable condition of the newly formed earth crust.
For what it's worth, regarding the Great Flood, Psalms 104:8 ASV:

The mountains rose, the valleys sank down) Unto the place which thou hadst founded for them.
