Im thinking that what would be required for people to start accepting such early dates for finds in N. America might be some fairly clean, unequivocable artifacts or some skeletal material or. . . .. anyway, somthing that could not credibly be attached to "natural phenomena. With finds that are even remotely associated with glacial deposits, there is always going to be the "reasonable doubt" that they could be either natural artifacts of the grinding along the bottom of the glacier OR simply later artifacts that were plowed into earlier remains.

Wonder how much NSF money (aka US taxpayers money!) has gone into valuable research that is STILL sitting on some desk awaiting the "right time" to let the rest of the world in on the discoveries. Old story, pet peeve. . . ;-) Regards bk
