RE: [asa] Noah's local flood?

That doesn't surprise me. Yet, as much as I like natural processes to work
within God's plan, the Flood certainly could be an intervention event since
judgment was upon them. This is not unlike Sodom and Gomorah (but not like
hurricane Katrina since Bourbon Street was, essentially, missed).

I really have no idea what geological evidence would be expected given a
full range of scenarios incorporating "dunking" with rain augmentation.
