How Soon Might the Atlantic Ocean Break? Two Sibling Scientists Found an Answer—and Shook the World

This is a long read but well worth it.
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Thanks for that. A very interesting article and one that links back to a book I'm presently reading Blue Machine by Helen Czerski. I recall her describing the huge undersea waterfall in the North Atlantic so I must reread that chapter and see if she mentions the research of the Ditlevsens, or Boer's.

Oh that was a good read. I do like a well written horror story.

I'd probably like it more if I didn't have grandchildren.

They could be wrong or mistaken.

Well, that is the whole point of science. Challenging positions, doing more work...
