Its not my theory genius. And, if youre not bright enough to understand the principles involved , or dont wish to understand them, I understand that , for your kind,100000 years is as big a problem as is 4.5 BILLION years..
PS, I didnt have to look up ablation , geographically, its generally considered the zone in the SOuth 20% of Greenland where melting has occured from the BOTTOM of the ice sheet. snow still falls at 7 ft/year , thus giving us the 250 feet of snow over the plane. I think I was pretty clear about that. (maybe Ill have to go even slower with "special gunga"). You can have ablation and accumulation going on at the same place, just that one exceeds the other over a year or an eon. (cf) Glossary of GEology 5th ed.
I shall hAVE TO contact WIKIPEDIA, because their article is somewhat incorrect because ablation does not occur only on the surface of a glacier. The "real source, AGI says"
Quote:ABLATION,(glaciol)- includes all the processes by which snow and ice are lost from a glacier,floating ice, or from a snow field. These processes include melting, evaporation, sublimation, wind erosion, or calving. Sometimes ablation may be limited to surface losses, thus excluding calving. It also includes that period of a year when the
balanceof a glacier decreases from a maximum value to a minimum value within that specific year. This is a period when, on average, ablation exceeds accumulation. SYN, "summer"
I get to quote out of my own personal CD which , unless you subscribe to AGI pubs and are a "card carrying " geo type, you cannot, nor can you peer into its vast talley of words. You are destined to forever be stuck with WIkipedia, the true mark of an Amateur "Creationologist"
AGI has about 25 entries for various events with ablation at the front.
Your argument, out of ignorance, assumes that anyone is buying your logic that someneophyte grad student glaciologist has agreed with Hovind that one line means one year(this is utter bullshit and I accuse Hovind of making up a baldface lie). When real scientists work on this arcane crap, they make sure that theyve thought of everything including the fact that a glacier may be melting from the bottom in one part of Greenland (Where the plane was actually found , its the part where "summer sun" actually occurs for 5 months or less). Therefore Hovind has you convinced that he knows what the hell hes even talking about when , indeed, hes nothing but a big fraud who merely talks like a Creation Huckster.
Notice, I didnt call you a blowhard because I do feel that your ignorance should be swept away with some enlightenment and Ive given you at least one good book, Richard Alley's "The TWo Mile Time MAchine" Its a book on the way that ice cores are dated , correlated, compared , and a "standard" log developed.
Ill admit that glaciology is not my area of work but Ive probably got more data in one single drawer compartment of mineral inclusions in ice cores and isotope ratios (which is one of my areas) than you will probably read about on your own. Im not bragging, I just practise this every day so being told by some clueless hillwilliam how my education is lacking is somewhat humorous (at least to me since my daily craft has earned me a pretty good living)
