In fact, if you read the link given, you'll see that what Dr Morrison wrote
14 years ago was a review of a book in the popular press called 'The Three
Big Bangs: Comet Crashes, Exploding Stars, and the Creation of the
Universe', By Philip M. Dauber and Richard A. Muller
Dr Morrison only mentions the NH in passing. Because Richard Muller is also
a co-author of the NH. He tells us: "This book is a good read, but should be
taken with quite a few grains of salt."
How you get "thorough endorsement" of the NH, from the admonishment to take
something else one of it's co-authors participated in with a grain of salt
is a mystery to me.
But to say that book review is a "thorough endorsement" of the Nemesis
hypothesis is untrue. And a classic example of the many intentionally
disingenuous falsehoods of Ed Grondine.
Good hunting,

Subject: [meteorite-list] Periodicity of Extinctions
Hi Richard, all -
At least here on the meteorite list the peanut gallery is allowed to
squeak.
Amazing - There appear to be no mention of either Chicxulub or Shiva in
the wikipedia article on extinctions:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction
Apparently, they're all due to global warming now.
When one of the larger YD craters is definitively proved, then obviously
it will have to be co-incidental to the extinction that occurred then.
And/Or it will have to be a Carbonaceous asteroid that hit. And of course
the First Peoples detailed memories of those comet fragment impacts are
simply fairy tales made up by retarded savages.
My mistake! :p)
Now since the Nemesis Hypothesis has been thoroughly disproved, perhaps
you'll send Morrison a note suggesting that he update this piece:
http://www.csicop.org/si/show/is_the_sky_falling
in which he thoroughly endorsed the Nemesis Hypothesis as the standard
paradigm, while damning Clube and Napier.

Aside from that, I am thoroughly enjoying the images of the fragments of
73P which are being posted to the MPML. I hope that some IR images of
73P's dust load come along shortly.
good hunting,

PS - I tried to get some YD nanodiamonds from an excavator to sell to list
participants, but he thought the commercialism would sully the science,
and the preparation costs were too high.
