seismic waves

The force that propels the earth upward, simulating its gravity. The Universal Accelerator.

does the lower plate just fall out of the bottom of the earth or what?

It's recycled.

how does directional acceleration compact a mass of earth in a direction perpundicular to the acceleration?

There are earthquakes all the time along the rim.  However, they are slight and the mechanism that is responsible for these 'quakes is also the one responsible for making the ice wall.

Can you explain that mechanism, please?  I truly want to see the light and ignore all I learned in my college geology and geography classes.

Subduction.  But you should know that since you took geology in college.

So you still believe in plate tectonics then?  Interesting.  How deep is this flat earth that allows the forces of tectonics to occur as they would occur on a round earth?

A few hundred miles, probably.

Did you think it was a 2 dimensional model?

Rock and stone.

Rock isn't known to reflect kinetic energy, and certainly not millions of years worth of it.

They never could answer that. Note th  tyour question was ignored so far.

The ice wall is all around the earth, and is dense enough and strong enough to stop anything: water, teconic plates, pressures released by volcanic activity, shock waves from tectonic activity, you name it, is stops it.

The ice wall is also said to go well below sea level. Now, how would such a strong vertical object ever form with the universal accelerator pressing on the earth at the bottom and the top?

Understand now?

Yes, I thought he was referring to the Earth, not the ice wall.  

I'm sure this won't surprise you, but it was probably formed the same way mountains and other continents are formed.  I doubt it is a glistening vertical wall in which you can see your reflection.
