Hi, Folks - several people have repeated the claim that blood products from the dinosaurs blood system was able to preserve the tissues over the supposed 65 million years that the bones have been in the ground. Fist of all the experiment that Mary Schweitzer did involve placing soft blood vessel tissues in a bucket of blood cells that had been split open to expose the iron oxides (this in no way represents the blood in a huge dinosaur which would have been distributed across the entire body and unlikely to pool into specific areas because these organisms were ripped apart when deposited.) Furthermore, when animals with blood are cut open, the blood instantly sends signals to express thromboxane to make clots and stop bleeding and clotting happens quickly. Therefore the blood used in the experiment must have been heavily saturated with large amounts of anticoagulant to prevent the thromboxane in the blood from clotting in the first place. This is nothing like a dinosaur (or any blood containing organism) being ripped apart by the effects of the Flood when they were buried in and it WAS NOT REPORTED in her paper. Secondly, Iron oxides are very strong and do not stay stable for long - they oxidize things very rapidly in nature (have you ever had a car rust out on the East Coast of the US? Blame it on iron oxides). They are highly destructive - and if they did function as a preservative, we would have them in our protocols manuals as a new form of tissue preservative... but we dont because every tissue processing microscopist like myself knows that doesnt work. These radical molecules are not going to do any appreciable preserving whatsoever. Thirdly, the soft tissues that I demonstrated had NOTHING to do with blood - they were not in any contact with blood, or iron and they show no presence of any iron fragments like Mary showed in her paper on a small part of a piece of tissue exposed to prolonged contact with lysed blood cells. Just read her paper.... The soft tissues in dinosaur bone have not been explained by Schweitzer. Soaking blood and tissues in a protected bucket in an air-conditioned lab for two years - hardly like the Hell Creek conditions, what with freeze-thaw cycles, rain/water infiltration, insects, rodents, plant roots, fungal mats and countless microbes, protists, etc., over the supposed 68 million years. HONESTLY! And I get accused of being a non-scientist! We have them on the run folks - dont lose heart - spread the points mentioned and hold your head high - the dinosaurs arent much older than the Pyramids or the Great Wall of China. Mark
