Watch Amazing Planet on the National Geographic Channel, Born of Fire.
it
explains plate tectonics pretty well, Even an Aussie could understand.
(Well, some but probably not all)

In 150 million years Pangea will be back and california will be where
alaska
is.


Never mind it will need to be pulled there across the Pacific plate
that is supposedly being pulled to those trenches in the far east.

Of course, this seems perfectly plausible to you.

How would you model this movement in 3D?

The NA Plate is moving east. It breaks at the San Andreaus fault, with
the
San Andreaus part of Calif continuing it's NW journey. The NA plate
merges
with Europe, Africa, Asia, etc. Watch the show, if you have satelite or
cable tv. The best info is now on cable or satelite, the networks only
carry typical garbage we used to refer to as "mind candy", anthough I
would
venture to say it does little positive for the mind. PBS is now the Tree
Hugger Channel, showing every version of the radical environmental
movement's theologically approved, dogma inspired, "entertainment and
educational pablum".

The statement I remember best is that almost all of the worlds' geo
scientists believe the plate tectonic theory is correct. I would have
asked
them what brand of religion they believed in, but you know what they say
about religion, dont ask, dont tell.

The graphics were much better than al gore's cheesy graphics in his
"horror
video" an inconvenient truth.

Super Pangea, or Pangea II, the sequal, coming to Earth in 150 millions
years. Don't believe it, or believe it, but it will be here just the
same, unless the mechanism that is driving the plates runs out of fuel.
Then, we will be Mars II, the dead planet.


Pure mythology

JT

As endorsed by most of the worlds leading geo scientists . Your credentials
are ?
Since I am not a 'leading geo scientist', I am mearly an observer, but they
speak the truth. My science and physics background tells me so.

What tells you otherwise? The little voices in your head saying "the earth
is expanding, quick grab the knife and chop up the neighbor and stab the
earth to let the gasses out"? (Humor of the day)
