Honestly, I could care less. The list of natural disaster predictions that never happened go on and on. What bothers me is all of this "data" they have from thousands of years ago. Considering there were no humans and when there were, they didn't research things like this. It's all predictions and can be equally as flawed as carbon dating.

Black, did you read the bit about PlanetX? There is a whole section about how the Sumerians new of this 6000 years ago. I was just funny reading.

And about the carbon dating comment, I just heard of some carbon dating that was done to determine the age of something(can't remember what it was), but the date turned out to be in the FUTURE! LOL!

Go outside, get a rock, go to a welding shop, light up their torch, and get to work melting that sucker...

It would be the loudest noise heard by man for 75,000 years.

Pshhhhhtttttttt... I've heard louder!

I doubt you'll find a welding torch with enough heat to melt a rock.

[billybob_81067]

sure you could...

I've done it before... mainly just a bunch of sand I melted together, but if you kept at it you could get a rock to melt...

Sand is one thing, rocks are another. Trust me. I tried, 23 minutes of direct heat and all it did was fracture the rock and make my arm sore.

[billybob_81067]

lol

Well all I've ever done was sand, I guess I've just never had the hankerin to melt a rock... so I'll take your word for it!

Wonderful. This better hold off for at least another hundred years, or I'll be very angry for the short time between explosion and my own death.
