Re: [asa] moon dust

It's not that different from the authentic young-earth model of
impact-caused tsunamis constituting the Flood. As global flood models
go, it doesn't violate the laws of thermodynamics quite as badly as
several others-Noah would not be quite as thoroughly carbonized as in
most.

As far as I can tell, the usual young-earth claim is that there is a
thin dust layer on top of solid rock on the moon. That claim is
untrue. There's some degree of cementation of particles in the
regolith, in addition to the presence of larger particles below the
thin layer of loose dust. The cementation is a factor overlooked in
some of the more extreme pre-landing estimates of dust thickness.
