Eric... Quote | And Dave, the point you don't seem to get is there's no way of knowing how much He should be in those zircons, and we've given you a dozen reasons why that is. He didn't pick Fenton Hills at random, Dave. We've told you why he picked Fenton Hills; it's because due to the geology of the area, he expected there to be a lot of helium in those zircons, and not because they're only 6,000 years old. | That is total nonsense. The truth is if you would actually study this experiment, that they picked this because it had already been drilled. Did you not read that it was drilled in the 1970s in search of geothermal energy?
Gentry was just astute enough to notice that there was a lot of Helium in these zircons, so they got the idea to test the duffusion.
Why don't you do a literature to see if zircons in other locations have a lot of retained Helium?
