Thank you. I got interested in the Pacific Northwest’s very active geology history through a Geology teacher at Central Washington University, Nick Zetner. I graduated from high school in the inland of S. California before Plate Tectonics was accepted. Yes, the ground moved because of earthquakes but we had no clue it moved around the planet and up and down so much. Except when a volcanic island blew itself to smithereens the land masses had always been where they are. I never heard of super continents back then. Did not know there had been active volcanoes in S. California either. I gather some in the boondocks burp a tiny bit still. Live in the other side of the country now and know more about the west coast than I did during the 65 years I lived in SoCal. Like that a lot of it is “not native”. Exotic terranes. To me it is debatable about who was running into who since the continent travels around too.
Thanks, you have interesting data. I heard there was a method for dating rock by measuring g exposure to cosmic radiation, used on eratics from the Missoula flood. I wonder if it works for slides and lahars?
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting!
Greetings from the BIG SKY. Most interesting to know.

Patience software smoothes out nicely
You were born in 1950, I came in 1949.
44:22 Does the sentence, "They were excavating to create a wetland." need some explanation?
I heard nonsense.
You don’t explain why the statement is wrong to you. No sense to back up your statement makes yours nonsense too.
Get to it already!
