Forgive the tardy reply. My computer has frozen 5 times now in the midst of trying to post this. Apparently God is trying to protect my reputation,
but I'll not have it. My madness shall persist

This link has a lot to chew on, but it details findings at several sites around the great lakes which are mapped out.
These sites, where chert (silica glass) has been found all contain elevated levels of C-14, increased ratios of U238 to U235, and increased levels of
plutonium. The simplest answer for the abundance and depletion of uranium in these locations, along with the formation of Plutonium from U238 and the
increased levels of C-14, is that the area was bombarded by thermal neutrons. The fact that it is localized is damaging to any arguement that it was
an astronomical event, unless one assumes that a hole in the ozone existed over this region at some point but healed in a relatively short time.
An alternate source of particle bombardment would be a nuclear explosion or a neutron bomb (as is argueably described in the story of the Pyramid
war). It must be mentioned, however, that Cessium, which SHOULD be present in the fallout from a nuclear weapon (at least as we know them: meaning a
nuclear weapon based on Uranium or Plutonium- i have no knowledge of what other possible fissile materials would yeild) was not present.
Also of interest, two sites did not reveal depleted uranium, but rather ENRICHED uranium. Both cases are unheard of as natural phenomenon: the
variation in U235 to U328 ratios is only .01 percent. The typical composition of a Uranium deposit is .72% U235.
In addition to this, there is a more famous case of a vitrified and irradiated city found near Rajastan and Jomphur in India (I believe I already
provided that link) as well as the Pakistani city of Mohenjo Daro (pardon my spelling perhaps). In the later case, some 40 sets of remains were found
in the street, and I have heard that some discovery in the temple indicated that they had been praying for salvation from the light which was to
come.
There are other stories I haven't even looked into yet. Notably there is a Native American legend of great cities in Death Valley, which I will look
up eventually. Unfortunately (from a certain perspective) I am working again, and although I enjoy the money, it takes away most of the time I used to
invest in fool's errands.
EDIT: Roark I've been meaning to address your last post for some time. Climate changes don't cause elements to grow. A 166% jump is no small thing
either. Finally, I had already presented evidence of fission: because extra carbon 14 means particle bombardment. Now I've given you more evidence of
the same type, along with chert in the area.
