seismic waves

has anyone thought of a legitimate rebuttal to the argument about seismic waves traveling through the earths core?

government conspiracy totally.

how do you type with that messed up arm lol

bob dole doesn't need to answer these types of questions. bob dole came here to debate the shape of the earth.

Seismic waves reflect off the ice wall, creating the illusion of a round earth.

what property of the ice causes the waves to drastically change in frequency?

The ice wall is not made out of ice.

Your post did not make an iota of sense.

The ice wall is not made out of ice.

WTH?

Your post did not make an iota of sense.

Neither did yours. "The ice wall is not made of ice" WTF?

The ice wall is made out of the same thing Antarctica is made out of.

The ice wall is made out of the same thing Antarctica is made out of.

which would be material which is not present anywhere else in the earths crust?

sooo..why dotn earth quakes destory the ice wall?

Things that make ya go hmmm....

just seems like...the vibrations would cause cracks...over 4 billion years...worth of time

its because its not made of ice



ITS SOLID DEPLETED URANIUM AND TITANIUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

how do earthquakes happen..on a flat earth?


whats the trigger?

The ice wall is not made out of ice.

What? Then what is it made of?

Read the thread.

Read the thread.

Unfortunately, "The same thing Antarctica is made of" isn't a clear answer. What is Antarctica made of, then?

Rock and stone.

Rock and stone.

Then why does "ice" at both the North and South Poles melt? It takes extreme temperatures to do that to rock and stone.

The rock and stone just happen to have ice on top of it.

Rock and stone.

the same rock and stone that conducts seismic waves at a certain frequency, yet somehow bounces them back in the opposite direction at a different frequency? what substance in those rocks causes the seismic waves to change direction, if they were being transmitted along in a different direction initially? if its the same substance as the earths crust, the waves should maintain the same frequency and they should continue traveling through the ice wall (which isn't really ice) and out towards the edge where they would be dispersed

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

Enough ice so that we've yet to see this rock and stone that Antarctica's supposedly made of?

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

The edge is held firmly in place like a drum.

held in place by what?
