[meteorite-list] Holocene Start Impact Events worknotes
Hi all - Copies of my current worknotes on the Holocene Star Impact Events (and yes, there were two of them)may be had by emailing me for them. List members will remember hat I was the first person to write about the comet impact which killed off the Mammoth, some three year before Firestone published. I do not have money enough to get to Tucson this yea, as the death of my lady friend of 15 years has cleaned me out Good hunting, eveyone - .Ed __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Hibbens apology, Paul?
Hi Paul - I see where you have not modified your site to reflect that Hibbens observations of muck deposist from the 10800 BCE have been confirmed. While Hibbens is dead, I am not, at least not yet, And neither are you. So how about giving the old vet his props on this?

[meteorite-list] New impact structure?
Hello everyone - Well, the new year find me above ground - And the Neocam is on its way, Just as a reminder, last year I announced the production of gamma rays in large hyper velocity impacts.That and $2 will get me a cup of coffee. As some of you will also recall, I was the first modern scholar to write about the comet impact that killed off the mammoth and mastodon.I also spent a lot of time defending Hibbens' work. My colleague Fletcher Wilson wrote me about a possible new impact structure to the west of Yellowknife, Alberta.They are tracing the Carolina Bays back to it.Just as a reminder again, there should be 2 impact structures in Canada, one the well known Holocene Start Impact Structure,and another from the impact before that one. This earlier impact is indicated by Meltwater Pulse 1A, and associated gamma rays and 14C production.I suppose that perhaps there may be comet debris around these structures, although most of it would have been carried away,But that should still mean impactites exist - even though the impacts were on the ice sheet - good hunting, everyone. The key here is going to be tracing back the meltwater pulses. It would probably help if the geological society inicluded sessions on impatcs this year at their meetings. It is strange that so little work has been done this year on mega-tsunami deposits on the Atlantic coast.It is much warmer there than in Alberta.(See my paper on academia for notes on the.archaeology of this one.) I wish I could get to Tucson this year, but that does not look too likely right now,Perhaps some publisher will pay for a second edition of "Man and Impact in the Americas".I am currently living in Vicksburg, Mississippi, the ancient home of the Yazoo people. good hunting in the upcoming year - E.P. __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Recent impact craters
Hi everyone - The recent discussion of meteorites from Earth reminds me - The impact structures from neither of the Holocene Start Impact Events have been identified yet. We have the 14C production spikes from the gamma radiation of the two impacts, and while we can use the meltwater outflows to identify roughly the impact areas, ground verification has not yet been accomplished for either of them. I am quite pleased to read that 70% of the voters of the United States now think that finding the next impactor well before it hits is NASA's highest priority. good hunting, everyone,and I hope to see you in Tucson,E.P. | | Virus-free.www.avg.com | __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] The Holocene Start Impact Events
Hello everyone - I just put up on academia a short note on the Holocene Start Impact Events in response to Holliday et al''s rather complete confusion about the Younger Dryas. Take a look, - it should take maybe 10 -20 minutes, and get back to me if you want to. I will post tomorrow on the latest news - good hunting, eveyoneE.P. | | Virus-free.www.avg.com | __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] "Younger Dryas" impact
Hi Paul - Once again, as we know from the 14C spikes in production and the meltwater pulses, neither of the impacts occurred at the Younger Dryas.Given my experience with Hibben's finds, it will take several years before this is widely known. Which is depressing as hell. If I had not had my stroke, I probably would have been galavanting around Canada and have the impact epicenters identified. Perhaps I should set up a go-fund-me, the E.P. Grondine crater search fund or some such. And then we get these folks trying to tie La Brea to global warming. Oh Yeah, that's it, global warming led to the extinction of the mammoth and mastodon. oh well, good hunting, everyone, E.P. __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Frank Hibbens returned to honor
Hi Listeros - Some of you with really good memories will remember my defense of Frank Hibbens so many years ago.Others will remember the recovery of the artifacts and site pictures a few years ago. Well, this weekend I was at powwow and met the first recipient of the Frank Hibbens research grant.A building at University of New Mexico ha also been named in his memory. I suppose my own work on impact events will finally be recognized about 2070 or so. good hunting, everyone, E.P.__ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist2.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Destruction of the Hopewell civilization
Hi Anne, everyone - When I did my survey of native memories for "Man and Impact in the Americas" (now $50 used, thank you. I wrote a collectable. Best wishes to all of you who invested in a copy.) I hit no mention of Tankersley et al.'s event. None. It looks to me like they are finding out of sequence deposits, and/or materials from the 534 CE Encke fly-by. No question but the Shawnee had access via their trade network to Brenham as well as anything else that came down. What is "funny" to me is that so far very few people have stumbled into the relatively recent smaller impacts. The way I look at that is "any decade now". For about $30,000 or so I could go to Chicago and take another look to see if Tankersley et al.'s impact event shows up. I doubt if it will. In other news, I have recovered a Yazoo sculpture from near my house in Vicksburg. I may have to sell it to buy a car. Anyone here work with an auction house? Mississippian sculptures are so rare that there is no standard market price range. good hunting everyoneEd E.P.
