DISEASE BROUGHT BY WHITES

Thanks for all the info E.P.
I am published in my own narrow niche, but certainly not to that extant.
I will PM you for a copy of your work.

My comment on C14 is not so much on current discoveries, but on the huge backlog of older stuff that was dated before the possibility of errors was known.
Those dates are still accepted when they could be way off.

As a matter of fact, I think you'll find that it is difficult for many people to accept that recent impact events have occurred.

One word for those people.

Tunguska. I'd hope that 1908 was "recent" enough.

Yeah, when I did my first North American survey, I'd find end Hopewell Hopewell dates from 300 to 700 CE. And the uncorrected and earlier dates before acceleration dating still get repeated, again and again and again.
While comet orbits do change(!) due to gravitational interactions, the impacts do provide some astronomical precision, another way of checking.
