There seems to be a cap on how long any poster may submit at one time. The rest of the K/T info will be for another day. Cheers.
There is a length limit for messages, but it is imposed by the standards of the World Wide Web. When you click "Submit Reply" your message becomes an argument to a CGI program, and the limit is imposed on all CGI arguments. I do not remember the limit, it might be 65,000 characters.
Once a message passes 10,000 characters the author should instead consider posting it on a webpage and linking to it from his message.

Re: Edge=Lysenko?
Hi Kyle,
One reference per message is not a good investment of this site's resources.
Your references include no supporting argument or discussion or comment, and so it is impossible to tell which of your earlier assertions are supported by which references.
Further info was not allowed by the server, as it did not allow the quotes on the subject to go past a certain word limit.
The character limit for a message is well into the tens of thousands. Please do not post excessively long messages. Rather, please post them on a webpage and link to them. If you'd like to post long webpages at EvC Forum then let me know via email to Admin and I will help you.
I have closed your K/T thread and requested that K/T references be posted here.

Topic Drift Warning
Hi Kyle,
Please restrict discussion to the thread's topic, K/Ar dating. I believe there is a Mount St. Helen's thread in the Geology and the Great Flood forum, but if not then go ahead and begin one.
Your other post was on topic, assuming the link and the next post should actually have been together, but instead of beginning discussion anew with yet another link, could you attempt to resume the discussion already in progress and that you were a part of when last you were here? Thanks!

Hi Kyle!
Here at EvC Forum debate takes the form of actual discussion rather than by listing links. The Forum Guideslines state in rule 5 that Bare links with no supporting discussion should be avoided.
Could you please describe the point you're trying to make with the links you listed, and then tie this in to the discussion that was taking place when last you were here? Thanks!

Topic Drift Alert!
This topic has been dormant for nearly two years, but the new posts have much potential for drawing this thread off-topic, so I want to caution participants early to stay on topic. New members should give the Forum Guidelines a careful read.
The topic of this thread is the validity of K/Ar dating.
