Evidence sounds pretty slim.
An event of that magnitude, if it was major enough to leave pits in mammoths tusks, would be marked in the rocks all over the world.
We could probably even figure out where the star was and almost exactly when it happened.

That guy's just showing off. And I'm not going to ask how he goes to the bathroom. Or where. ;')
I agree, and for that matter, do the scientists have an explanation for why the ice age glaciers covered nearly half of North America, much of Europe, but almost none of Siberia, when Siberia is colder than the other two places today? I suspect it has something to do with the north magnetic pole being on the Canadian side of the Arctic.
The true ending of "Footfall."
Why would people go to South Dakota to hold a conference on elephants? It makes even less sense than having a scuba diving school in Phoenix, AZ.
This can mean only ONE thing!That"Mother Nature"(under the direction of The Almighty)needs to be INDICTED by The EPA(AlGore)!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The extinction of these creatures is a problem of mammoth proportions.
Didn't you hear, Al Goreghoul is gonna prevent this from happening again? The supernova I mean ... he is the 'global warming cowboy' don'tchaknow.
Look for further developments as Clovis sites are excavated further (they had stopped digging because Clovis was the oldest--in a fine example of circular reasoning) and new finds come to light.
Humans may go back much farther on the continent than previously assumed.
You make a false assumption, that the material of the star would be evenly ejected and have no clumping.
My view is that the glaciations didn't happen (nor will future ones) due to gradualist, uniformitarian causes.

Thanks for the link.
That makes absolutely no sense. A scientific theory is by definition more than an educated guess.
Yes, thanks.
Did Dave Barry ghostwrite this?
Yet the bison in North America, even though they were harassed, were pretty much safe from the Indians.
Until two things showed up here:
Horses and
Firearms
I used to believe the "they were hunted into extinction" idea but it doesn't hold out. There was something more involved, climate change, some sort of catastrophe, whatever...
