The document below ( 14th June 2002) mentions "a chain of at least five craters spread across several continents" It doesn't go into any details but goes on to hypothesise a meteorite ricochet that leaves a debris trail that eventually forms into a debris ring around the Earth's equator. Is there anyone that has any idea what Sandia Labs are talking about? Is it a line of craters starting in Central Australia, another off the North West of Western Australia heading up into SE Asia (Thailand?) and on further? Where does this line end? When did it happen? Web Page: http://www.sandia.gov/LabNews/LN06-14-02/LN06-14-02.html then look for "Rings around the Earth: A clue to climate change?" right click, save as or just try this link http://www.sandia.gov/LabNews/LN06-14-02/labnews06-14-02.pdf September will never be the same for me and billions of people around the world. Nevertheless the events of Sept11 2001 are on a human scale that finds it difficult to comprehend the effect of a series of impacts on such a global scale. The local paper carried a picture on its front page last weekend of 61 babies born to widows of 9/11, heart rending stuff with apparently over 100 kids who will never know their father's. The Israeli and Palestinians seem to be killing more of each others children with hatred and hysteria on the TV every day. The troubles at Erfurt school in June this year. Why does humanity find it so difficult to live peacefully with each other? I'm with you Bernd. chris sharp Received on Tue 10 Sep 2002 07:23:34 PM PDT |
