(One more time - another last word):-   Yes. Sure thing.  It's that
simple.   Everything about the geology of the Earth points to:-
1. *ENLARGEMENT* - extrusion of the mantle (emplacement of the ocean
floors).  Erosion.
2. *ADJUSTMENT* of ROUNDNESS*  - transform faults ('Abyssal Hills -
the biggest landform on the planet and the least about which anything
is known), so-called subduction zones (which aren't subduction at all,
but the adjustment on the most profound expression of crustal rupture
the Earth has ever seen, but may be surpassed in the future by
disintegration of the planet.
3. *SPIN* - the architecture of the entire surface geology is
symmetrical with the accommodation of spin through geological time.

But you in your myopia can not only see nothing, but are intent on
holding up pillars which have less substance than the Emperor's new
clothes.  The only good thing about your appearance here Stuart is
that you will be seen by others in the future as the only one prepared
to put yourself forward as the the frontman, the fall guy, (the
*GEORGE*) - the *JESUS CHRIST* even, of Plate Tectonics (Jesus
Christ!) , who will go down in the archives of Google as the one
prepared to sacrifice all for his dough-headed weeetabix eaters, the
one prepared to be riddled with the flack of scientific
progress, ..hanging like a wind chime, ...gibbetted at the crossroads
of science with the wind singing through the holes in your pathetic
corpus, ..a lesson to all small children who play with their soup at
dinner and too many rubber ducks at bed time.
.............."Ah that was the guy who pioneered defence of Plate
Tectonics on the internet, The guy who fell asleep on Boxing Day
watching telly, filling his legs up with Christmas Pud when there was
that Big Tsunami that "snapped the crust up", the one that killed
hundreds of thousands of people in a single hit, ..  the Rip Van
Winkle of Earth Expansion.."

That's rigth. The model proposed by Allègre is limited to isotopic
heterogeneity:

<http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v323/n6084/abs/323123a0.html>

But read Anderson, cited above, he arguments for more important
heterogeneities, including chemical compounds (compounds, not necessarly
elements ok?)

"Bingham Plastic" is a model. I want real stuff.

Could you please  give me an example of "Bingham Plastic" like material
that was observed to convect (thermal convection of course).

Thank you.

Indeed, Stuart exposes himself in this newsgroup. I already warned him
that the discussions are archived. But I don't think it would ruin his
carreer. His excuse is "Everybody was wrong". The worse that can happen
to him is that he will be laugh at for a long time.

If the geodynamics,specifically differential rotation of the interior

have surface geological effects.

may be due to the absence of a background,a depth that cannot be

you folks pooh pooh anyone that knows any thing. and stuart's
mathematics seems to go over the EE head.  I know that any disprove or
legitimate science is clearly ignored.

          I know about celestial mechanics and  the simple stuff I post
is  never really discussed except to snipe and call names.

       1. the mathematics predicts that IF and ONLY IF the mass
increases will the moon collide with the earth.

       2.  the null test is no threatening approaches by the moon.

  and Yes I can post the mathematics.  but why bother when it serves no
useful puprose.  Ignored messages text is just noise.

Facts is that the moon is receeding despite the earth is growing. Try to
find the physics to explain it instead of wasting your time in denying.

Why am I not impressed... ah yeah, I know. "mathematics" is not a kind
of magic. It is just a tool. Only cranks are impressed by maths.

Stuart's arithmetic is under the table.  By his own admission he

So what use is his arithmetic?  It's predicated on what premises?
(Certainly nothing geological.)

The Bingham plastic rheology was developed by Bingham ( who else?) to
explain the
behavior of certain fluids like slurries, fluids which under low
stresses will behave rigidly
then loose strength under high stress and suffer permanent continuous
deformation.

I suggest you do more digging.

By the way, just because feel at a loss due to the fact that are no
measurements
supporting the earth's increasing girth is no reason to attempt to
portray convection
in plastic or non-liner solids in the same light. You'll only wind up
looking silly
if that isn't too late already.

Creep mechanism in solids are theoretically and experimentally
justified, take a gander
at Poirier's "Creep of crystals". There's a nice Frenchman for you.

It will be along time before you ever earn that right, if ever.

Exposing your nonsense for what it is, can't hurt anyone's
career except yours. Assuming you actually have one.

Can't you read "thermal convection", or should I conclude that there are
zero examples?

Too much certitude. It's gonna hit you very very hard.

BTW, I have a little exercise for you.

Like puzzles? Know how to use isochrons and transform faults to retrofit
margins? Let's play (2.9 Mo):

<http://nachon.free.fr/isochrons/antarctic.pdf>

What a surprise! We can retrofit the margins of Lord Howe, Australia,
India, Africa, South-america, all around antarctica!
Hey wait a minute, it means that the surface of the globe did expand...
Looks like you're in deep trouble...

No, ..you're quite wrong there, Florian.  Stuart understands perfectly
well the business of manipulating "the Gift that Keeps on Giving"  -
orchestrating the cadences of error in such a way to make them sound
OK against the other cacophony of contradictory noise.  What would he
and others do for an encore, if they suddenly discovered they were
right?  Oriel put it nicely once about science being *all about* being
wrong / impossible to be right, ..and always striving for the truth.
It's the name of the game, being wrong.  It's the secret handshake,
the whispered password necessary to get through the door.  Make any
allusion to the possibility that you might actually be on to something
right and you're deid meat, .. in Stuart's business of 'science', just
listen to them holler.

But you're dead right about the Archives of Google.  It will be a long
time until there is an After-Google for our Stu.

Well if you know what it is...

Then put some in a pot. Put it on the stove, heat, observe.

What is it you're expecting exactly?

No doubt the current dual with abstracts must seem great to both of
you but ultimately it amounts to a stationary Earth mechanism versus
an expanding Earth conclusion with plate tectonics getting cut to
pieces in the process.Having presented the outlines of geodynamical
influences via a common mechanism for planetary shape and crustal
motion I think it is time for a break,at least from the forums.

       He's a kook. That's only rarely been a problem for a career
flipping burgers. (Some might argue that decades of burger-flipping is
a necessary prerequisite for the higher levels of kookery ; others
would deny the need for such high-status employment.)

that only the most indifferent are not curious about geodynamical
influences on the motion of the Earth's crust.

I find 'convection cell' adherents worse than ee proponents insofar as
they inherit the genuine reasoning which lead to plate tectonics as a
prooductive working principle but are now undermining the concept with
details of the interior,structure,composition and viscosity based on
an ad hoc mechanism of  thermally driven convection.

So 'even' Oriel gets that ee is idiotic is followed by geostationary
'convection cells'.I would say it will take a few months before the ee
guys will start hammering you about the internal mechanism and I do
not mind that  you will come off looking worse,I do mind that you are
taking plate tectonics as a working principle with you.I leave you to
what I am sure  for you is a titanic struggle with ee guys but I do
look forward to genuine people actually picking up geodynamical
influences as they know exist in the matter of geology.

After a incredible 9 moinths with more detail added to geodynamical
influences and the addition of an overlooked orbital component I look
forwrd to a genuine break that is good for everyone.Don't cut each
other to pieces ,do you hear,and keep the discussions technical.

The good people who work in those fast food chains do not have
pretensions and do their jobs properly  but considering that you,as a
stationary Earther,make little of them while believing in your own
nonsense says more about you  and your 'high-status'.

Perhaps among those people who work at McDonald's there is a genuine
geologist or astronomer who could not surmount the dismal empirical
doctrine and settled for something less or those who still suffer
because they have no outlet for their natural talents.You have only
risen to standards set by your own kind,to be fair,that works to a
certain degree but natural talent sets its own standards and its own
course - all the great discoveries are made by those who cross the
boundaries between disciplines that are now becoming evermore
compartmentalised.All I see here are overheated discussions based
solely on surface correlations and that hardly is the realm of
evolutionary geologists.

I do not mind backslapping but you do it at the expense of others and
who knows,maybe one of those who served you French fries would have
made an astounding geological  discoveries had the background been in
place to operate in productively for that person .I made my
discoveries because the background conditions were hostile but once
done,they are done .

Regardless of what you say,you are a stationary Earther who just
happens to be familiar with plate tectonics.and I will leave you in
that condition until September when I return.

What? No answer, Stuart?

Hah!  Not only have you no answer to how subduction begins
http://groups.google.com.au/group/sci.geo.geology/msg/9a8d3634bd3a8471
you do not understand the priorities of the parameters controlling the
process you profess to support, you are drunk on the foetid fugh that
rises (by convection) from the overheated malodourous swamp of Plate
Tectonics.

Tell you what, Stu, .. ..  Since you began all this by being the
arrogant bully you are, and taking a gratuitous swipe at my poor one-
legged butt when I asked a simple question, ...and since you are
seriously continuing to support this stupid analogy of hot air rising
as the reason for keeping the whole schemozzle of Plate Tectonics on
the road even though you or anyone else cannot tell how it begins, nor
can offer any reason for the many anomalies, conundrums and outright
contradictions that follow from attributing convection as a driver for
a process you know nothing about (how it begins),  I'll offer you a
page on my website and you can fill it out (/in) (as you prefer)as we
go along and things occur to you.

I'll provide a hand-hold and help you.  Like Florian says there's
surely plenty in the archives we can use .  Now I can't say fairer
than that as an aid to fair-handedness can I?   Aidan there's even
complaining that you're not answering my posts...

Come on Stuart, subduction is the key to your whole argument for Plate
Tectonics and you freely admit you have no answer to how it can
begin.    What's going on?  If you can't answer that one you plainly
need some help.

Some of what? That is the question. Can't you just give me the name of a
plastic solid in which thermal convection was observed?
