That's really interesting to hear. But, you do realize that one "proofs" Creationists use against Evolution or that the Earth is apx 4.5 billion years old is that radio carbon dating is in accurate? Given the time frame, the error range should only be in the years to tens of years range, so this is really intriguing to me.

I believe alot of the events accounted in the Bible happened, just not that it is an accurate history, but an alegory. For example the Great Flood was told of in Assyrian legend - oldest known acount apx 6000 yrs BC: 2000 yrs before the Bible accounts for it.

Anyway, interesting thanks Yorick! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
