That's silly. You're saying there is no way for a wave to propagate through any shape other than a sphere?

No, its more like, if it propagated throught a disc it would be just felt on the other side of the dics, so we'd have two separate earthquakes magically happening at the same time and by pure coincidence if you accept the RE theory for a moment these two spots seem to opposite each other but no, it is purely coincidental as earth is indeed flat.


Graph for those who didnt understand:
     
    -X--
 --  |   --
-    |     -
-    |     -
 --  |   --
    -Y--
(RE theory, btw)
Two spots where earthquake is felt marked by X,Y

FE theory:

I-------X----------------------------------------Y---------------I




--------X'----------------------------------------Y'--------------

Two places where earthquake is felt marked by X,Y. Ice wall marked by I ;]
As you can see, when earthquake X propagates, its felt on the other side of the disc (X'), shame we cant check that.
So if earthquakes are noticed in X and Y simultaneusly it must be coincidence.

Except seismic waves don't go straight through the earth from X to Y (even in RE theory). Instead they are much more consistant with a wave going down and being reflected by a surface below. I'm surprised a RE theorist would bring this up if he understood it

I'm simply surprised you try to use it to prove RE theory, when it seems more consistant with a wave that reflects off of the bottom of the cylinder of earth...

Oh, dammit you guys now I have to stay. And you were so close to getting rid of me. And besides, I won, not you wierdos. No one could prove my point wrong so therefore I won.

your a little child fiddler who eats dogsh!t for breakfast and likes to nibble your dads privates.

you cant prove my point wrong so therefore i won.

Well obviously you're trying to pin the things you do on me.

And the point no one could prove wrong was why earthquakes are felt the way they are. You have an earthquake on one side of the planet and it is felt on the other side. In round Earth there is a real easy explanation, but no flat earth explanation.

no, i was just proveing that your reasoning is a fail. As is your ability to notice such.

I saw a picture of the dark side of the moon today at my conference and very very nearly shouted out conspiracy....
