I caught that later on, but it doesn't actually change my figure, as it was calculating fraction of the atmosphere's volume converted, not fraction of a specific component of the atmosphere. It calculated for one 78km3 volume out of around 660,000,000 78km3 volumes. I wasn't calculating for how much the percentage of C14 in the atmosphere would change, just how much of the atmosphere would be effected in that hypothetical situation. ______________________________________________ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
