#3 so in 4.8 million years a day will have 48 hours? (86400 seconds a day / 1.8 * 100). And 4.8 Million years ago a day had zero hours. I doubt that...

#22 I still haven't seen the geological paper that supports the new "gold core" theory. When did this come out? This is going to be bad for idiots who think there's more deeper, when evidence from across the globe was rather there is less gold going down.
