plate tectonics

come on Jack boy, where's you diagram. I need a good laugh.
You'll probably need to use a RE diagram as a base. A) because no FEer has ever studied plate tectonics before and B)because you know nothing about plate tectonics anyway. Only what you read up on between my posts

Way to make assumptions...and idiotic assumptions at that, anyone who's ever done science in school have studied plate tectonics.

Well let's just wait till we see the diagram hey.

The atmosphere slows them. mkay?

But they are still traveling at the speed of light through that medium.

Totally off topic but SparteX has been giving me a good laugh with radio waves and how they relate to the speed of light.

In a vacuum radiowaves travel at c. in atmosphere, they are slowed. what's to understand?

How fast does light travel in the atmosphere?

radio waves are light, thus they always travel at the speed of light.

You're back. Have you just been reading up on plate tectonics on wikipedia or something

Uh, I have school and work, unlike you.

Here's the Antarctic Plate [ILLUSTRATION AND APPROXIMATION ONLY]:


Here's how the plates work [ILLUSTRATION AND APPROXIMATION ONLY]:

omg, that's hilarious
Bye bye, I give up with you freaks

omg, that's hilarious

noooooooooo don't leave, I was just starting to like youuuuuuuuuuu

Me too. See my sig...

or even keystage 3 geography. :p

Sorry to be harsh guys. I don't know where to start with the diagram. Perhaps you could provide some evidence of your magical continuos divergent boundary that cirles the earth. The ice wall seems to be connected to the earth too. A while ago (in the same thread) it was floating in space.
How does this diagram fit in with the fact that Antarctica (somewhere near the ice wall?) hasn't always been on the edge of your map?

It's the Earth that is floating in space.

Uh, yes it has...

For the subduction zones to be all the way around the ice wall. every other plate boundry would have to be kicking out magma.

In the real world, the continent of Antarctic hasn't always been where it is now. You can't deny that, it's a fact. The plates in the FE world don't seem to move.

Raise some money, bring me to an underwater team, and I will show you the evidence.

The Ice Wall always connected to the Earth...

Antarctica IS on the edge.

No it hasn't, the southern tip of pangea became Antarctica, it hasn't always existed (in FE terms) as a circle surrounding the Earth

Come on Chris, read.

Chris is right. Actually my name is Chris, so I'm right too

I'm glad you didnt leave FES needs more Chris's

Where's Jack, I need a good laugh

I dunno I'm not his minder

Wasn't asking you Gayer

But I felt like answering

From you diagram, it looks like your ice wall is getting a bit too warm

Too warm for what?

it's just a little unclear what the ice wall is connected to on the diagram. Looks like ice next to hot stuff = melty ice wall = no stupid FE

I don't see the ice wall next to any hot stuff...

I don't see the ice wall next to any hot stuff...

OH, I see. The ice wall is part of a plate. The one which doesn't seem to move, has always been where it is. Plate tectonics and FE don't mix. You can't have moving plates on a flat surface with boundaries.
