Schweitzer published her research on dinosaur bone in the well known journal Science. She has been roundly praised for her work by her colleagues.
Ah, good for her. Most of the time journals reject such findings. Last I heard people were just attacking the messenger and doubting the evidence.
So, forget the pickaxe and the bell... now we have a chain. well, at least we have a citation from a newspaper article. That's considerably more than we had for the other anecdotal stories,
Actually, they were all part of the same thing; strange man made things found in rocks. The machinery piece was only the first one I found. The bell and the hammer were in related articles.
I will ask again. Is this really the best evidence for a young earth?
