Bill, If a used car salesman brings me a pig with two saddles on it and
says: "This GM car will give you a great ride! Just look at the leather
seats!" One is obligated to take a look at the big picture and realize that
this is a pig not a car and that GM stands, not for General Motors, but for
Genetically Modified. So when I say, "But it is a PIG!" and the guy replies,
"No it's not! Look at those leather seats" it won't be dogma, or a closed
mind that keeps me muttering to him, "But it is a PIG!"

Bill, I would suggest that if you had a well-thought out, fully developed
theory, you would have had an answer right now. This business of
young-earth/global flood people always having to get back to us on various
topics is clearly an indication that these items have received NO
forethought at all. Why is it that global flood advocates only look at the
saddles to determine what the object is rather than looking at everything?
You are like that car salesman above. All you want to look at is coal and
you ignore all other facts in your single minded pursuit of the global
flood. Your theory doesn't have four wheels; it has four cloven feet!
