You probably owe me an apology over the ‘scolding’ you gave me about the Carolina Bays (absolutely) not having a celestial origin.
Carolina Bays
And me as well, Renfield, for the caustic lecture you gave me about the demise of North American megafauna. I expressed the (to you) heretical notion that they might have suddenly perished by some means other than over-hunting by Clovis tribes.
While this new theory doesn't give any final answers, it lends credence to my long-held hunch that catastrophism or disease played a much greater role than over-hunting.
“...You probably owe me an apology over the scolding you gave me about the Carolina Bays (absolutely) not having a celestial origin.....”
No, I don’t. Carolina Bays are NOT of celestial orgin; they are, as we discussed before, deflation basins. Many of the bays predate the 12,900 year age mentioned in the article, and some geologic formations have no bays, while other adjacent formations do.
