You must be drunk.

False, calumnic, specious, and cheap.

"I can tell when you have run out of arguments:
you resort to abuse".

Did you notice I invited Eric to check Glenn Milne out? He is a
top-flight academic in Britain who does inundation analysis and
is respected in the scientific community worldwide.

I checked him out.
He has a voluminous body of research and publication.
As you have given no proper reference, I must surmise that
you do not really know what you are talking about, because
you have not given us any indication of what he is talking about.
Although it does seem to have something to do with sea levels.
Perhaps you meant this one:

Mound, Jon E.; Mitrovica, Jerry X.; Milne, Glenn A.
Sea-level change and true polar wander during the Late Cretaceous
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 28, Issue 10, p. 2057-2060

Perhaps you saw special significance in this passage:
"Specifically, we combine ... with viscoelastic Love ... to ...
assess ... transgression ... an order of magnitude larger".

Or in this one:
"A predicted hump in the Hc(psi) curve
at intermediate angles marking the changeover
from one mechanism to the other is suppressed by
particle interactions (packing factors p of 0.127-0.373)."

Or in the immortal question,
"Did the last sea level lowstand always lead to
cross-shelf valley formation and source-to-sink
sediment flux?"

Is your Glenn Milne the part-time agronomist
extensive experience in dryland cotton production?
Is he the one who accused the Australian Prime Minister of
being drunk?
Is he the one who provided the genius-level inspiration for
your opening insult?


If you want to be taken seriously, then you have to actually
provide specific information.
That is what scholars do.
They give references.
You might have noticed that in the backs of a lot of these
big-word stories are lists and lists lists of names and dates
and story titles.
That is called a "bibliography", which is just a big-people's
word for "writing about books", so you don't have to try to
remember that big word.
You only have to remember to copy down exactly
what is written next to the name of somebody you are
interested in, just like how you carefully copy down
the telephone numbers in the lavatory.
If you do that, then I am sure that you will meet some
interesting people who will talk to you and do
interesting things with you in
interesting places.
And the same good things will happen for you if you
give proper scholarly references.

Perhaps it is not your fault; you don't understand me worth a fig
because others entered this thread and trashed everything I wanted
to say and told others my mouth is full of rubbish.

Yes, it's not my fault, and no,
it's not the fault of other people, either, because
it is your fault for
not telling us what you wanted us to know.
Your compulsion for secrecy is an impairment.
Perhaps it might qualify you for handicapped-parking access.
Please, go over to the DMV and bother them about that,
or maybe to the DMZ (your kind of people are on the North side).

I ask that you make
your own evaluation of where I am coming from,
independent of every sci.archer (especially Tom and Peter)
except Eric Stevens.

I did that, you silly goose.
Now you're just being annoying.
Go play somewhere else.
