Even though Atul may not be completely reliable, the fact remains that = the larger stones are N.W. of the smaller ones, contradicting the = Satellite info.... unless of course there is such a thing as a reverse = fall!

Please elaborate on this, I would like to know what falls = have a reverse distribution of material, that seems to defy the rules! = Mass and velocity, blah blah... you know, that physics stuff How can it = possibly be backward?
