Randman, you have revived this topic by responding to MESSAGE 1. Your reply has, at best, next to nothing to do with the content of that message 1 and/or the topic theme in general, which is John Baumgardner and his Catastrophic Plate Tectonics idea.
Not remotely an impressive return from your suspended status. I suggest you involve yourself in fewer topics, and really try to post material relevant to the topic in the topics you do participate in. Fewer but better messages.
I will leave this topic open for a bit longer, but will probably close it soon. It is about at the 300 message total anyway, and that is a standard closing point for any topic.
