For: CanMan

Hi CanMan,

I told you I would try and get you the source of the earth warming that occured millions of years ago that I mentioned in a thread here a few days ago. One source is from a National Geographic article on-line: Global Warming Preserved "Mass Kill" Fossils, Study Says The other source was on a show I recently viewed and I am trying to locate the exact show so I can pass that along to you as well. When I nail it down I will get it posted for you.

I find all science and theory very interesting, I do not believe all of it but I am enthralled by science and the endeavors that scientists undertake. I loved science in school, and it was my favorite subjest.

Can you please pass along to me the info on the planets undergoing a change or warming process. I may have misunderstood what you meant, and I apologize if I did, but I would love to read up on it. I just love that kind of stuff.

Thanks, Cathy
 
Did you get to see this CanMan? The other show source was a recent show I watched last week on Discovery channel, but I can not nail down the particular time & Day or the name of the program.

Thanks. Unfortunately I'm not on cable or satellite TV so I can't get the Discovery shows, but I check their website occasionally.

With the statements they made on that page:
"The greatest mass extinction occurred some 245 million years ago, when an estimated 96 percent of all marine species were wiped out."
I don't have a timeline handy but that may be fairly close. There have been more than one period in which most life was wiped out. Supposedly it has happened to mankind itself three previous times. We are concluding the fourth period. That's one of the reasons why we have such ancient ruins that cannot be explained by our normal evolution. A gentleman by the name of Xel Iam Lundgold used to lecture about the Mayans and what they recorded. Several of his lectures are on the Internet and through his website that are worth watching. He died in 2004.

"Generally the latter stages of global warming correspond with all our major extinction events," Wignall added.
And we are experiencing now........... You can do a Google search for "Global Warming on Pluto" and learn that it is occurring on the other planets also. Can't blame that on mankind. One needs to think outside the box (solar system) for what is causing it.

"Wignall says a major phase of global warming was already causing extinctions when a giant meteorite strike is thought to have sealed the dinosaurs' fate. "
Correct, but it is now known not to be a giant meteorite, but a Brown Dwarf Star (and a companion planet and moon) that is actually the sister to our own Sun. Scientists have now accepted that we are a binary star system, which is proving to be the "norm" in our universe and astronomers are rewriting their notes as they confirm other systems. Our 2nd sun is dead, or actually smoldering like a hot coal and is on an elliptical orbit that takes approximately 3,600 years to make a circle. We are at year 3,598 about now and it is slowly becoming visible by professional telescopes from the Southern Hemisphere. NASA has spent billions trying to find/track it and set up a special telescope at the South Pole. It will be visible for amateur astronomers by this time next year hopefully.

I don't ask anybody to believe any of it, but facts are facts and the answers are out there for anyone interested in searching deep enough for them. I've been researching it for a couple years now and I don't accept things lightly.
 
How interesting CanMan, I will do a search and read up on it as I find some spare time! It is hard to find time for all these wonderful things I enjoy, and keeping that garden growing and making time to just relax and unwind.

You know what I wonder about alot? Why if global warming is occuring at such a fast rate do we still have such beautifully cool weather in July, don't get me wrong it is hot, but it still is unseasonably cool at times also. I, just like you, can only watch and observe and then take it all with a grain of salt. Then I hope as these events unfold that the Scientists [being human as we all are] and who do not have all the answers either are wondering some of the same things. I am usually keeping too busy to really worry about it, as worry does us no good, but still I do wonder!

The astronomical events are very interesting and tend to fascinate me to no end. The fact that we may have been a binary star system makes complete sence and does not surprise me in the least, I am interested in researching this info. Astronomy is a fascinating subject in and of itself!

Thank you for passing this info along to me. I look forward to reading up on it!

By the way do you own a telescope? I had a very poor one once and it was a pain to use. My 8 yr old and I went to an Astronomy gazing one night at a local college and he had a beautiful scope set up, we did some terrific viewing that night, we loved it!

Cheers, Cathy
 
By the way do you subscribe to Astronomy magazine or anything along that line? I even love the Discovery Magazine. And of-course Popular Science!

I decided awhile back to retire from all of my volunteer organizations to deal with the new directions I'm heading. Final one was last night as CFO of a charitable organization, submitting my final end of year reports. Seems strange but relaxing.

One of nice gifts we have on this planet because of how our weather conditions are created. Having a planet that is "tilted" unnaturally, with kind of a wobble to it, also helps in the process.

Just wait until the movie comes out titled something like "When The Earth Stood Still". Makes one wonder where they come up with these ideas. Hint. Hint.
Then I hope as these events unfold that the Scientists [being human as we all are] and who do not have all the answers either are wondering some of the same things.
Or knowing and not allowed to talk about it. Several people have tried to release information and have disappeared mysteriously. A little unnerving to community of people trying to get information out to those that want it.

I agree and I wish I could have had such information back in school. It might have made more sense. The origins of our planet, our moon, the asteroid belt, and even the "canals" on Mars are now pretty well confirmed. The Mars condition was duplicated in a scientific simulator and startled scientists apparently at how accurate the results were. Samples from the Asteroid belt need to be obtained to prove another. All fascinating stuff.

Even more fascinating perhaps is when you are forced in to the biblical issues. Scientists too and that is really frustrating for them to admit (as proven) that the Bible may be the most accurate factual document ever written (and written solely for this cycle of mankind) and documented prophecies (Book of Revelation). Unfortunately you cannot use the "easy reading" versions of the Bible. Most old writings are heavily symbolic and coded (for valid reasons of the times), so much so that some prophecies aren't understood until after the fact. Nostradamus is a famous example of this. The Bible is the same.

Ancient biblical texts were uncovered in modern times and with that came the knowledge that there are other "books" of the Bible that were missing from that which was provided by the Roman Catholic church. The most interesting to me is the "Book of Enoch" that contains the full story of Adam, Eve, Garden of Eve and our Creators. Only recommended for the most open of minds and have unanswered questions.
By the way do you own a telescope?
Unfortunately the one I used to have was sold on eBay a few years ago to raise money. Besides, living in smoggy Los Angeles is not conducive to that hobby and no time to travel to the observatory.

Both Microsoft and Google have space observation programs that are phenomenal, but sadly both have been "altered" to blank out a specific location in space in our Southern Hemisphere. The Microsoft version did a fairly good hiding job and is noticeable only if one is specifically looking. The Google one is more sloppy, as if they really didn't want to do it. Yay for Google. The guy that originally posted this disclosure has disappeared, along with his video.

Nothing dull in life.
 
You're right about "nothing dull in life" aint' that a fact!!! Yes, I can see how LA backyard viewing would be unhear of, and it would be a wonder if the typical average citizen could ever get to "really observe" thru the one at the Griffith Observatory!

I am sure we (average citizens) are privy to only limited knowledge, as you stated so well in another post folks would "freak out" (my terminolgy for what you said) if they knew the "rest of the story" so to speak. I mean just look at the point KYH made in how there has been little to no coverage on the valcano eruption in Alaska. My opinion is that the media "spoon feeds" us anyway, and it is limited reporting at best!

And just by coiencidence I have read the Book Of Enoch [a long time ago] it as well as a few others (I have an Uncle that is a retired Episcopal priest) and he let me know about alot of religious writings that I found to be very interesting reads for sure! I find it is all fascinating.And since you mention it I think I would like to read it again as an adult and with a little more of life experiences and knowledge under my belt! Many things I read when I was younger and then read now have such a different effect on me now.

This is just my opinion: I believe religion and science and many "teachings" are all fine and wonderful and have their place in the whole scheme of life. Where as FAITH is a personal rather beautiful gift, and that is to me a wonder in and of itself, and really not open for discussion like most every thing else, one either has faith or they haven't. I try not to confuse it with all the other learning & "stuff" because then I can get confused, and I like to keep it simple and uncomplicated! But that's just me and I know not everyone else is just like me! I like to think that we can enjoy everything that is ours for the taking and leave all the rest of the really IMPORTANT stuff to our heavenly Father as he has the power to manage it quite well w/out my help or interference!

I figure when the sun self-implodes it'll be quick and rather pain-less and we'll never know exactely what happened in that instant, just BAM and it will be all over in nano or milliseconds, and just to think it may be eons before that rather cosmic event transpires or why it could be tomorrow, and that's the kind of stuff I like to not really worry myself over, but still love to read about! It's just so interesting, and I am glad others find it interesting enough to devote their entire life and studies to. Just like some devote their lives to cooking! Life is so Grand!!!
