It's a hoax! I'm surprised Elvis hasn't been found in some coal! I think the Americans have been on the moonshine.

There's was an investigation on imported drywalling earlier this year regarding toxic substances within it.
All mine come from a plant in Arkansas, a subsidiary of British Gypsum.
Quite a lot of plasterboard is made from flue fly ash these days both over here and by UK BG's plants, something like 40% of gypsum is reclaimed from fly ash from power plants.

Yep I knew all about the dry-walling, read about two years ago .......... some were also sold to Europe, mainly via Germany if I remember correctly, the uproar came shortly after the 'Great Chinese Melamine from Coal' additives to USA animal feed scare, then infant milk formula ......... yer've got to keep an eye on these China Chappies. |

Chinese electronic components leave a lot to be desired, their resistors are total crap, they age rapidly and go "high" resistance over a couple of years. Their electrolytic capacitors are a joke, they tend to fail after just two years with loud bangs or just leak electrolyte all over the circuit boards..
It seems some Chinese "joker" gained access to a Japanese manufacturers capacitor inside information. The Japs make the best electrolytics in the world, one top company has a secret formula for their electrolyte.
Well this industrial spy took the process he'd stolen from the Japs and sold it to a Chinese capacitor manufacturer.
Big problem was the Japs only kept a partial list of the ingredients of their electrolyte used in their capacitors in one place, the rest were kept in a safe.
The Japs must have been laughing all the way to the bank, as everyone came back to them for new stock and replacement parts.
The Chinese lost face big time...I just hope the Chinese military used home made Capacitors... "Flier Corpolal, Flier I sled, flier I sled!!!" I did sir, but it didn't work.....BOOM. ;D ;D |

I wouldn't ever underestimate Chinese technology .. especially their military capabilities and I still think that way after seeing some of their engineering up close and personal  |

Bacteria were found living in SA gold mines thousands of feet below the surface, it was at first thought they had been introduced by the miners accidentally.
After much research the scientists found they were a type not previously known and actually lived in crevices withing the rocks...
There are also bacteria living in scalding water near fumaroles at the bottom of oceans, so much for boiling operating instruments... ;D

How do you know if there haven't been several ages of humans on earth pre carboniferous periods???
Again, how certain are we that the carboniferous period was 250M to 200M years ago?? It appears the method used in dating rocks has come under scrutiny the last few years as faulty.
For many years the Grand Canyon was reputed to have been made by the Colorado River over many millions of years. When Mt St Helens erupted, canyons were formed within hours, something that had been disputed for a couple of centuries, so the Grand Canyon could have been gouged the same way.
Some very notable geologists with Phd's are now looking into this theory.
During open casting in Derbyshire during the 60's, the NCB geologists came across some shallow workings, around 40-50 feet deep, it looked like two distinct seams, the pillars of the old workings and a thinner seam about a foot thick. The thin seam was slack that had been thrown into the goaf and compressed into semi solid coal once more.
There are many anomalies being found around the world under the ground.
There are two theories of how crude oil was formed, I much prefer the original theory, which the Russians still teach and respect at their universities. |

"There are also bacteria living in scalding water near fumaroles at the bottom of oceans"And some mammalian species known to survive even greater underground temperatures, the remarkable yet fairly common ELECTRICIANONATRANYSAURUS, a species known to exist in a permanent semi dormant state for years, moving only occasionally to eat and even less often to attempt reproduction, truly a survivor from a prehistoric age.

Unless my eyes fell out before page 52,didnt find any referrence to any Welsh finds?
Plenty of evidence of Sasquatch footprints,and some interesting articles on ancient civilisations.
But some of it,was a bit hard to swallow/far fetched. |

I seem to remember them being fairly elusive - someone was always screaming for one over the tannoy. Famed for their elaborate nests, based on transformers or coiled up shearer cables. The closely-related Fittersaurus led a slightly more active lifestyle and was distinguished by its larger pouch, or toolbag to use the correct zoological term. |

The most decisive way is to declare (as one Captain Buckland did when a toad supposedly released from a lump of coal in a Welsh mine was exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1862) that such
things are “a gross imposition”—the work of fools and bunglers whose words and eyes are not to be trusted." |

"Fittersaurus"
Not to be confused with the much higher life-form, the species known as Avafitwenesaurus …….. a somewhat lesser spotted, although often heard shrieking in distant darkness, life form. Described as a skulking predator which preyed upon unsuspecting lesser species especially whilst they were recumbent.

I was interested to read about the toad being found in solid rock. Finding small reptiles in solid rock or coal seems to happen fairly often. It is hard to believe they are millions of years old. Creation Science people have another explanation. They believe it happened only a few thousand years ago and all the fossil bearing layers were put down quickly at the same time. Fossils are only formed under certain conditions and this is normally a flood. The plants or animals have to be burried quickly so that they are sealed from a supply of oxygen so that they do not decay. If anything dies normally it is eaten by scavengers or decays away. Many fossils show the outline of small animals such as fish perfectly. If they had died naturally they wold have been eaten by scavengers.
What evidence is there for rapid fossil formation in coal mines. What about Z seams? You can have two seams of coal many meters apart which people would say had been laid down many thousands of years between. But one seam will split in two and half will leave to join the other seam. Explain that! They believe this flood was Noah's flood which was a worldwide flood. There were people before Noah so that is why artifacts can be found in sedimentry rock and coal. The live reptiles would be about 4,200 years old.

Well I never saw a frog or a toad underground, but I did once come face to face with a real live cobra sitting under a drift belt structure some fity yards inbye from the surface ........... it was the point that I started to disbelieve Indian soothesayers and their assurances that snakes don't negotiate steps or cross stoney ground.
Note, I don't know if it was neolithic or just a puppy, I didn't stop to ask.
