Earth Sciences & Geology (Science & Mathematics) - November 2007

it seems when a living creature dies, an animal, for arguments sake, the flesh and bones decay. no bones can realistically remain in a single location for millions of years to then become covered up with dust, etc, and then be turned into fossils under the immense pressure. Everything becomes dust in the wind, to coin a phrase, long beforehand. So do you as an evolutionist believe that either a single cataclysmic event happened to cause fossils or many cataclysmic events? And a second part to the question, are fossils still being created today; if so, where do you believe this is occurring.
PS, I'm asking because I'm curious, not trying to denigrate what anyone believes. Just curious. Thanks

It must be awful not living near the ocean.?

I've always lived on the seacoast in Massachusetts and could never imagine living inland. I understand there are beautiful rivers and lakes out there but there's nothing like the sea.

The river that flows underneath the Columbia River?

When I worked at an answering service, one lady who worked there said her grandfather had once worked with the Corps of Engineers.

That when they were drilling underneath the ground where Bonneville Dam is now located, the Corps discovered an underground river. She said her grandfather spoke often about this. She said he said the river was found to be wider than the Columbia River and the depth was unknown.

Has anyone any supporting information?

Thanks
