^ As we've said elsewhere sea floor spreading/continental drift instigated by acclerated radiogenic heating solves the problem nicely: you get (i) a mechanism for rapid spread, (ii) rapid reversals and (iii) correlated isotopic proportions with strips all in one hit.

I could point you to ICR web pages (and I will when I've got time). For now let me just say that, a priori, and qualitatively, the idea is possible if you accept that somehow decay rates have evolved. In detail, we'll see. But do you guys really think you have a real detailed explanaiton how each layer of the geological column got there? You most certainly have not! On the sea-floor spreading we actually sort of agree, it's just a timescale issue. With vast radiogenic heating it is a priori reasonable to expect accelrated spreading, reversals and continental drift.
The correlated stripes - I'm saying you get correlations between the stripes and the radioisotope proportins and the magenetic data because we agree with you that the stripes oozed out as magma one at a time and 'froze' the magnetic and radio data. It works for both of us - for you it is over 500 million years or so, for us it is over the flood year and following decade(s).
