Mmmm ... you might want to listen a little closer to try to tell what that noise is! Don't forget about the noise of legs breaking ... the cause of death in flash floods according to Dr. Gary Hurd! ... | Quote | | [12/7/07 1:41pm]Fluvial transport is much more severe than sandblasting, [really now?] there is the mix of grain size for example. Imagine being sandblased [sic] while being pounded by hammers. This is why people die trying to cross knee high water in a flash flood, their legs are broken, and once down they never get up. |
Even more surprising, Glenn is actually defending Gary on this point! Hmmm ... let's see ... how about you, Occam, would you defend Gary on this point? |
So you completely missed the bit where 'broken legs' is not the cause of death the key enabling factor leading to submersion/drowning?
And how that fact, which it is clear you accept (the fact that legs will be badly broken in even relatively shallow fast-moving water) totally destroys your silly fantasy about burrowing shrimp/clams/whathaveyou? You've put the burrowers into an even finer pink mist than you delivered to weird wally's hydropants nonsense.
dave, just how many stupid pills do you take every morning?
It is possible to overdose you know -- or you would if you hadn't already.
Those of you who haven't tired of dave really should check out the masterful drubbing Dr. Morton is handing him on TW. It is a thing of beauty and a joy to behold.
no hugs for thugs,
