But.But.But the Discovery Channel has been telling us about this as if it were a proven fact! That and Global Warming.

I am just crushed that they could have been wrong!

Who says they were killed off?

I think they got back in their ships and went home.

A massive inpact is the most plausible. 300,000 years is a hickup. The fact remains that above the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary the fossil record of Dinasuars ends, and the iridium has been found at that layer all over the planet.

...and iridium is not a substance that occurs naturally, in abundance, on Earth.

My theory is that the Caribbean is the site/crater of a huge meteor impact, large enough to kill off dinosaurs.

Their DNA used up all its permutations and stopped replicating. Nothing lasts forever. Everybody knows that.

Interesting, they have the resolution to see 300,000 years difference in things that happened 65,000,000 years ago.

Lies. The Dinosaurs never existed. They're a creation of the liberal media to discredit Christianity.

"My theory is that the Caribbean is the site/crater of a huge meteor impact, large enough to kill off dinosaurs."

Notice the shape of the Carribean basin? It is uniformly round, giving it the look of a crater. Is there any concentration of Iridium beneath the Carribean.
