Ringing ringing raining

Ringing, ringing, raining
Hear my ears complaining
And Bernard Chouet says he did not do it.

Another one for the busy wife and mother:
How do you bite a biscuit into a shape like England and Wales?

Always allowing that north of Carlisle was built on a later time frame (going by the extinct super-volcano in the north of Scotland and the lines of most resistance further south.)

First butter your rice cake (use Welsh salted butter for just the right amount of salt and make a flask of tea as they are so moreish that you will be tempted to eat an whole pack.)

Simply eat around the perimeter, from side to side until you learn how many bites it takes to get the best outline your teeth allow.

Once you have established it is relatively easy to perform the same engineering design repetitively, you must own that there may be a feasible geo-engineering hazard to the weather, volcanoes and earthquakes that will enable you to go macro.

It will turn out that like Australia the initial concept of storm damage causing things in fits and starts must mirror the evidence presented by the patterning of Australia's coastline for which see the essays on Terror Australis.

So now match up whatever presentations fashioned after Lyell et al, you can find what it is that actually tells you how the angels did it:

Lyell's Uniformitarianism vss Catastrophism and Neptunism and finally Weggeners Plate Tectonics:

If I were to submerse myself in reading all that ancient tosh, I would not live to see to what it is that I am capable of deciphering for myself. But these volumes by Hutton and all the revered first experts still exist in mainstream geology as variants to their theories are amended and reworked.

Lyell, following deistic traditions, favoured an indefinitely long age for the earth, despite geological evidence suggesting an old but finite age.
What geological evidence might that be?

Catastrophism held that geological epochs had ended with violent and sudden natural catastrophes. Plants and animals in those parts were killed off and replaced new forms defining geological strata.

A moment's logic dictates that enough of a species would survive elsewhere to reproduce in time for continuing successful reproduction until they could find alternative accommodation.

How dumb can I get?
I thought this was a chart of presently erupting volcanoes, with the energy estimates given as the size of their circles. I already knew that it is impossible to estimate the energy of a volcanoes output at any one time without a lot of study. I have only just realised the chart is the list of advertised volcano tours organised by Volcano Dicovery.
