You know that RMD is fatally flawed so you have a responsibility.
Go to Home | Large Igneous Provinces Commission
There you will find dozens of articles about (surprisingly) large igneous provinces which are massive outpouring of lava.
Most if not all will mention RM dates, some of them dozens of dates.
Obviously the authors do not realise there’s a problem. Their names and addresses are available so contact them and tell them where they are wrong. I’m sure they will appreciate it.
Also I would like to know how LIPs fit in with Creation.

Are you saying most of the volcanism around the world was during the Flood, and there was only one Ice Age?
Where does the idea of Plate Tectonics fit in your world view?

Assessing past climate is different from predicting future weather. Thousands of sea and lake cores have been studied with temperatures assessed by means including Oxygen 16/18 ratios and the proportions of magnesium and calcium in shells.
The movement of various plants and animals toward and away from the poles can also been seen.
From this it can be seen that there were multiple Ice Ages in the last few million years, as well as much learned about the distant past.
People doing this research would appreciate your telling them where they are going wrong when you have time from advising the large igneous provinces scientists.
The putative post-flood ice age doesn’t seem to have been noticed by anyone, least of all by Noah getting his vineyard going.
Among the problems for Catastrophic Plate Tectonics is that, since it is not like a conveyor belt, the plate has to be built at one end and destroyed at the other. Also transform faults and magnetic striping have to be produced.
This has to be done by at least a million times current rates, with the end result that somehow it looks exactly as if it has been going a long time at current rates.
Can you give us a rundown on how CPT works? How much faster have the plates moved?
