I am waiting for a knowledgeable geologist or someone to tell us that these
formations are not formed by the same minerals or in the same manner in which
cave formations are formed. I'm sure that there must be an explanation w

A speleotherm is one of the HOT speleothems that Diana wants to date! *LOL*

Hi Don,
I know what a speleothem is
A speleothem (from the Greek for "cave deposit") is a secondary mineral deposit formed in caves. It is the formal term for what is also known as a cave formation, or amongst cavers sometimes known as decorations or pretties.
But I don't know what a speleotherm
Quick distinction and then I'll get back to being productive at work:
There is a difference between evolution as a "viable mechanism" for life
that already exists, and evolution as the origin of life. While this
statement is probably controversial, I don't think evolution in a living

Thank you for your constructive criticism, if you want to talk more about

Now for those who are still scratching your heads about the source of
approximately 99% of the heat on earth -
if you can't recognize a simple thing like a heat source that provides 99%
of the heat on your planet, perhaps you
might have a little trouble recognizing evolution, which plays just

OK, I'll play along. Calcium carbonate formations can grow at very rapid
rates. Did I miss something? I thought that this was old news to
cavers. Haven't we all seen examples of calcite deposition over man made
objects in caves? I am amused at the website,

Once again I'm going to have to question the wisdom in mocking religion on
this listserve...
So yes, caves, in the right conditions, can form far more quickly than
sometimes stated as uniform. Just as a private company can build a road 10
times quicker than the state- it varies with conditions..
Or phrased another way, why do we always seem to assume formations must grow
slowly?
Under favorable conditions, is fast growth possible?
Has anyone tried to grow "artificial" formations under controlled
conditions?
