I see by re-reading Hibben that the holocene start muck is described separate from the find spot of the point. (Though that find spot was overlain by 90 feet of "marine deposits".) I've had a stroke since I read through Hibben's report, and have moved on to other material - my book does span 6 million years, after all, with about 50,000 years in detail. (My current focuses are more recent.) But again, Hibben's purpose was to demonstrate the use of the Siberian land bridge. He appears to have been surprised by the holocene start deposits, and I can't find a reason for him to lie about what he saw (or the point recovered), particularly when those who were there with him at the time were still alive. I hope this finishes the topic, and we can move on to meteoritic spheres. (But I fear that's not likely). Once again, the easiest way to explain the end of the last ice age is by the mechanism I suggested - an altering of the Pacific current channels. If this upsets CO2-global warming advocates, so be it. Sometimes its hard to think calmly when people are screaming.
