In reply to the discussion: Horrible VP pick [View all]lagomorph777
(30,613 posts)39. I love digging too.
The more I dig on this one, the more genuine controversy I find; new data all the time. I enjoy that!
One really chilling piece of evidence for the glacier impactor is the "Carolina Bays." Something splattered most of North America with elliptical craters, around that time. Look at the lidar images of just one example. And by the way, if you allow for the Coriolis effect, and trace back where all these fragments came from ("fragment" is a relative term; many of the Bays are kilometers across) - you get Saginaw Bay, which was under ice at the time. He's not claiming Saginaw Bay was created by the impact - the ice would have protected it, and it is much older.

Yes - actually 2nd try at ending the last ice age. The Younger Dryas was a major hiccup.
