Asian events are totally linked. We need to determine more exact event dating for all of the events. In a posting of several years ago, I speculated that a multiple impact event (MIE) was the cause of the so-called SE Asian tektite strewnfield. Until the site or sites are drilled we will not know for sure that this is indeed an impact structure in Antartica. Such a large scale impact still would have interacted with the ice covered geology as evidenced by the findings of the negative magnetic signature. As for information concerning impacts in SE Asia, I have not yet completed my research for publication; therefore I will not detail my findings. There is hard evidence for impact sites related to the tektite event of 700,000 ybp in SE Asia. Moung Nong tektites and the splashform tektites give strong supporting evidence for this. I would gladly receive your questions or comments. Sincerely, Dirk Ross...Tokyo _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo!
