RESEARCHERS CAN'T BELIEVE IN THE FLOOD

Here is the latest evidence of a world-wide flood, but the researchers have to interpret from their very old age perspective.

Giant sea creatures that filled Earth's oceans for ages began dying off in vast numbers approximately 2.6 million years ago, and researchers say supernovas may have played a role. Stellar radiation from a string of nearby star explosions would have drastically affected the animals, likely triggering the Pliocene marine megafauna extinction along with climate changes at the time, according to findings accepted for publication in Astrobiology.

130 MILLION YEARS OR MAYBE A LOT LESS

This news came across the wires today:
Blubber, skin preserved in 180M-year-old ichthyosaur fossil
Researchers have found blubber and skin preserved inside the fossil of an ichthyosaur that dates back about 180 million years. The findings, published in Nature, suggest that the marine reptile was warm-blooded and offer hints about its camouflage pattern.

There is no way blubber and skin can be preserved more that a few thousand years at best, I would be ashamed to publish such a story!
