Nice try, but no cigar

nick hoffman — 9/4/2006 7:34:47 AM (archived)

The era when Mars had an active magnetosphere was over 3.9 BILLION years ago.

The surface features - spiders etc - that we're discussing have ages of less than 1 million years.

Learn a little of the things that you write about. It will help...
