Here's a frozen lake. What are these people doing, and why?

The Bible does say we will not be tempted above our rank - ability ... if you do see truth - love you will see power and evil --- the righteous will run to one and flee - eschew the other !

Particularly when there's a powerful heater at the bottom of the lake.Totally false! The snow on the surface would quench any heat coming from the core! <whoa, must be channeling someone... feeling lightheaded... must go eat dinner...>

I should point out that increasing the amount of heat energy in the atmosphere and oceans may not lead to just global heating. One could have more evaporation and snowfall leading to hotter tropics and ice covered poles. The average temperature may be hotter but the extremes more pronounced than at present. Current climate models don't predict things in this detail. Or one could have desert conditios around the equator and warm poles (this is the press's view.) Or the first scenario could lead to a higher albedo (ice and snow reflect more heat than land) and thus trigger a cooling effect. About all that is known is that more carbon dioxide and more methane in the atmosphere will lead to more solar energy deposit; what happens after that isn't so clear. (My guess is just longer summers and more violent storms.)

The Bible does say we will not be tempted above our rank - ability And is this ability not "evolving" as we experience life - both individually and as a civilization?

Indeed, the article is from January, 2000. Dispute over Schopf's claim of 3.5 giga-year-old cyanobacterial look-alikes dates from after that, maybe a year ago.

Welcome back :-)Well thank you very much for the welcome, but as I said to general_re, I'm just passin' through, friend. And as I also said to him, I do mean friend ;^). God bless you.

Thank you for your reply! Indeed, I figured the Lurkers here might not have been following the previous thread and thus might not know about this upcoming seminar. I wonder how long it will be before we hear the results of it?

Buffering means having a repository of the item being buffered. So while the carbon dioxide levels swing wildly in the atmosphere, the plankton absorb excess to keep the active amount in the atmosphere more nearly steady. It's the same idea of a buffer in an acidic solution. Or a buffer in a computer I/O system. (Not the same as a buffer to polish a car.)
Calcium just exists in the crust. (Ultimate it was produced in a nova or supernova.) Calcium is very active and comines with acids such as carbonic acid to produce limestone (and marble.)

Welcome back, AndrewC - for however long you'll be staying!!!
To: Alamo-Girl
This part in particular hurts Schopf the most:
Brasier says his examination of the specimens revealed structures "indistinguishable from graphitic mineral growths that occur alongside [the purported fossils] - they frequently branch chaotically in the same way and intergrade continuously with the shapes of inanimate matter."
I tend to only quote Schopf now on matters rather far from his Apex chert fossils.

Thanks, God bless you, Ali
