Mike,
Things get rapidly buried today, hardly an observation that warrants a global flood inference.
However, you still have to respond to this, which was originally pointed out to you in your "millions of years" thread.

Re: Young earth
Mr Nicholson,
The sun pulsates, measure this change during the contraction part & you could infer this. But to infer this now would mean ignoring the fact that it becomes larger, too.
http://www.asa3.org/...ronomy-Cosmology/PSCF9-86VanTill.html
"Within the professional scientific community, a preliminary report which suggested a long-term and rapid shrinkage of the sun presented a puzzle for solar astronomers. Consequently, additional studies were made and the credibility of the original data was re-evaluated. The result is that secular shrinkage has not been substantiated, but an 80-year oscillatory behavior was discovered."
What creationist ministry of misinformation did you get that from?
