Hi Holmes,
Seriously though, did Hutton and Lyell know about this volcano? And if so how come gradualism was pushed so heavily by Lyell?
I have no idea about Hutton, Lyell or anything else to do with science.
Although I love reading the science topics here, I really have very little knowledge of any of the scientific theories that get discussed here. So rather than do a Bluffers Guide to YECism jive, I tend to leave the science to the scientists.
Sorry I couldn't help.
Brian.
