This past week pbs aired a Nova episode called Mystery of the Megavolcano, http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/megavolcano/.

I noted in particular the comment about the specific chemical signature that is unique to each volcano. Volcanic ash carries the chemical signature for its unique volcano. I wondered whether there has been any attempt by the YEC community to address this? They simply deny the validity of the determination of the age of the volcanic rock but the chemical composition is another matter. The flood would have widely dispersed and mixed the ash from all the various volcanos. However, the ash/rock is very well contained geographically. Do they say all these volcanos happened after the flood? Or haven't they discussed it? Perhaps this is another useful talking point.
