Alpine Younger Dryas Impact evidence

Senior soil scientist Bill Mahaney nails YDI in glacial sediments
A masterful and comprehensive effort here from respected Comet Research Group co-author, Bill Mahaney. Much of the discipline-specific text is hard for the Tusk to fully grasp, and I have had no time to properly review, but I have asked Bill to provide a layman’s summary of the approach and conclusions. I hope to…

An Open Letter on Panspermia

Tusk questions the Dark Horse Podcast
The Tusk tossed the following question to the Dark Horse Podcast in hopes that the dynamic duo of Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein will address Panspermia in an upcoming show. They are the PERFECT intellectuals to investigate and speak to the work of Hoyle and Wickramasinghe. I have submitted the question to them on…

Sciency journalist misreports climate giant Wallace Broecker on Younger Dryas
The failure to properly report evidence for the Younger Dryas Impact will one day be understood as the worst intellectual crime in the history of science journalism. I recently came across an illustrative example in the work of Alexandra Witze. In March Alex published a hagiography of Wally Broecker and his lifetime of work…

Tusk at Sedona Conference

With Graham Hancock and Randall Carlson in Sedona, Arizona
The Tusk is back from a wonderful four-night stay in Sedona, Arizona, where I gave  a presentation on the Younger Dryas Impact. Wordviewz Media and HowTube’s conference was another milestone on my own journey from hard-headed, meat eating, materialist; to hard-headed, meat eating, materialist…who loves hanging out with the Arizona “crystal crowd.” God bless…

#Pebblegate over; Tall el-Hammam paper remains published

James Lawrence Powell again defends the integrity of science
The Bunch et al. paper concerning the biblical city of Tall el-Hammam and co-authored by the Tusk has proven a dramatic publication. Arguably the most popular scientific journal article on earth, the paper has by turns been reported to millions; smeared by anti-Christian bigots; spared by a secular publisher; and most recently employed by…

Tusk goes all personal on Ukraine; curses for first time on Internet
Since 2010 the Tusk has never mentioned nuclear war. I have presented thousands of pages of evidence for an equally destructive, and oddly similar, form of sudden global annihilation and ecological destruction — cosmic impact. But war and bombs are not my gig. That said, if you asked me a year ago which threat…

In praise of intellectual honesty

Broecker, Shermer and Defant reverse opposition to Younger Dryas Impact
A little blue bird tweeted this weekend that the Younger Dryas Impact was off her radar since she was “not aware of widespread community acceptance of the proposal.” I’m not aware of any books on that topic – I believe most of the discussion has been in journal articles. I’m also not aware of…

Premature rejection in science: The case of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis

James Lawrence Powell publishes masterful takedown of the YD impact deniers
Dr. James Powell published an extraordinary review paper this week revealing and carefully detailing the premature (and pathological) rejection of the YDIH. When combined with Martin Sweatman’s work from earlier this year, the whole sorry story of the unprofessional knee jerk opposition to the theory has finally been told….

Tusk TV begins oral history interviews with newly minted Member of the British Empire
Not long ago before the holiday I asked my friend Chandra Wickramasinghe to take a stab at the first video discussion on the Tusk. We were patient with each other, and each requested a delay before we chatted. But it turned out wonderfully, in my humble opinion, and even included a “synchronistic” aspect. The…
