It's very informative regarding C14 testing and, later on, how these dates need recalibration.
Yea, thanks for that, Beag. I had to run out and never followed through.
Digit wrote:The problem there Monk is that of calibration. Any form of calibration require an accurate standard for comparison. That is course the reason for needing re calibration and has always been the weak point in C14 dating.
Yes, you're right Digit. For this they used to rely on things like tree rings, coral grows, and context. Now there are other radiometric measures which are more costly but effective for correlating C14 dates.

What's interesting about the latest C14 discussion is that the effect will be to makes dates older rather than younger....which will be of little solace to the Archies of the world.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

Arch' ass was kicked good by them xtians. He was too loony, even for them. He's been very quiet since. Probably had a remission and is rehabilitating at the mountain resort.
Wonder whether he'll be able to resurrect himself again.
Would be real funny if he did.

You know, I'm honestly worried about the guy. When he started talking about curses and stuff it occured to me that he may have really gone off the deep end.
