Actually, no, the presence of phyllosilicate clays indicates the previous presence of large amounts of alkaline water, whole seas of it. It was only with the advent of extensive volcanism that this water was acidified with sulfates. Clearly the first half billion years of Mars history was one of great seas and alkaline waters.

Well, Nick?..You're Mars theory has received it's most vital support evidence to date. - Jacob - 5/16/2008 1:48:51 PM
- Your inference that Mars harbors no pathogens is not supported - E.P. - 5/19/2008 6:05:23 PM

      - Your inferences about possible pathogens from Mars are completely unsupported - E.P. - 5/21/2008 8:27:53 PM
        
        Your constant use of "unsupported" assertion as a debating tactic is useless. (n/t) - alcaray - 5/21/2008 9:51:09 PM
