Allen, could you take a look at the essay on my web page, "Entire Geologic
Column in North Dakota" and explain in detail how what is in the column
could be accomplished by a global flood? I would like a detailed explanation
of each event.
thank you.

How deep was the water? If it was deeper than 30 feet, nothing was "running
here and there" The water depth would prevent it.
