The bridge was formed over millions of years as a result of erosion.

Salar de Uyuni, Bolivia. Both the world's largest salt flat and largest mirror.

[Wot, wot!]

Wow. That's so beautiful!!!

Tiggers.

Hmm, I can't see the second one... 

And these are all beautiful!

Neither can I.

I'm not going to argue, but please don't state it as if it is fact. Thanks!

[Izeroth]

 I believe it is a fact. But I don't want to start an argument.

Pileated woodpecker because of Corn




The work of a pileated woodpecker...

*Sigh*  I've seen every single woodpecker native to my area other than the pileated woodpecker. On that bird-oriented note, here's a quetzal:

The bridge was formed over millions of years as a result of erosion.

According to Rand McNally (in the map, atlas and globe business for travel and educational purposes for nearly 160 years - to me, a credible source), "the natural bridge...was formed by wind and erosion consistently over millions of years."  These aren't the only factors that often go into the making of natural phenomena, but it doesn't seem that Izeroth is speaking incorrectly or inventing 'facts.'  His description is almost verbatim the original.  (Source: http://blog.randmcnally.com/2011/04/29/natural_bridge_state_resort_park/)
Also, the continental ice sheets of the last glacial period, ending 10-12kya, never reached as far south into Kentucky as the state park.  I just googled some maps for that.

So, *looks pointedly at you all one by one* if you see something you question, fact-check, and if you want to explain something, cite your source.  All right, guys, thanks for the fun.

Oh dear. I think that Del and Mhera's problem is more to do with their religion and beliefs.

[Banya]

Hmmm.  That's an angle I hadn't seen.  As a believer in both science and religion, I would love to discuss that, but this is not the thread.  On that note, here's a picture of mountains in Lesotho that takes my breath away.

[Eulaliaaa!]

That's really cool.

You people are gonna get the thread locked...
