Paleontologists and geologists are interested in the ages of fossils, rocks,
and minerals, from which they deduce the ages of geologic strata in the
Geologic Column. Scientists make use of radioactive dating methods, such as
the radioactive decays of carbon 14, uranium 238, and thorium 232 in fossils
and minerals. Accurate age determinations depend on knowing the rate of the
radioactive emissions and the relative amounts of initial and product
elements in the decay series. However, if an interfering nuclear change took
place earlier, the perceived age of the earth deposit would have to be
wrong.
In 1989, the discovery of cold fusion-the fusion of hydrogen to make helium
and energy inside metal electrodes at room temperature-was announced by Drs.
Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons at the University of Utah. Soon after,
cold fusion research also revealed that nuclear transmutations, forming many
new elements, occur liberally. Even purposely-added radioactive uranium and
thorium in cold fusion-type cells resulted in transmutations, and the
disappearance of up to 95 percent of the radioactivity in hours or minutes.
In addition, special water pumps, invented in America and Europe, were
discovered to generate "excess heat" and possible nuclear effects by
intensely agitating water and creating "cavitation bubbles."
In Carbon Dating, Cold Fusion, and a Curve Ball, the author postulates
interfering nuclear (element) changes occurring in the Earth, and proposes
that extensive element transmutations occurred from intense hydrodynamics
during the Flood of Noah (Genesis 6-8). If so, it is conceivable much
alteration of radioactive elements took place, rendering unreliable the
radioactive dating results in most analyses done today. A relatively simple
test of this theory is outlined. The test would use a piece of bismuth
metal, a tank of water, and a boat's outboard motor.
The book is written for the non-scientist, but those trained in the physical
sciences or engineering are invited to examine the new hypothesis of Earth's
element transmutations and the consequential alteration of dating earth
material by radioactive elements.
