Indeed I do, sort of.  There is -- or was -- a series of Youtube
videos by Randall Carlsson.  He's very big on ancient cataclysms,
and has interesting theories.  Sadly, I'm not aware of any written
works directly by him, nor did I keep a list of references he cites
in his videos, so you're best served by taking a week, or more, of
16hour days binge watching his videos.

Rest assured, he as always entertaining!

Now, I'm coming at this from alt.magick, and don't deal in humanism,
nor skepticism, nor atheism.  I don't even know what agnosticism is.

So don't take my word for anything -- especilly since Randall Carlsson
has said everything I can repeat on this subject anyway -- and just
watch the videos.


Happy chaos theory!
