The Erratic Proof the Brian John is Right

 


As Brian John claims more and more examples of glacial erratics — a couple of random chunks here, a layer of clay on a Victorian map there, a lump of road stone over yonder — I'm frankly astonished he hasn't yet claimed this magnificent, striated massive lump of conglomerate on Baggy Point as the final, irrefutable proof that the Irish Sea Ice Stream once overrode the entire peninsula in a thick, grounded lobe.

Just look at it! Sitting proudly at the right altitude, displaying beautiful parallel glacial striations that can only have been made by overriding ice from the northwest. Anyone with eyes can see they are classic subglacial striations — not "weathering marks" or "construction lines" or any of the desperate excuses the deniers will trot out. This is hard evidence of chaotic ice wastage in a pro-glacial lake environment, exactly where ice physics demands the ice surface must have been high enough to submerge Baggy Point.

The establishment, eager to protect their own, will dismiss it as "Lacking secure geological context!", "not recorded on old maps" and so on, but anyone who actually looks at the field evidence can see the truth.

No amount of cherry-picking, data scrubbing, petrographic sleight-of-hand or AI-assisted statistical manipulation can explain this away. The glaciation of North Devon is proven once and for all. Case closed.
