Thats odd,every geologist I have worked with knows what a rock stringer is,what it represents and how important it is concerning what was actually happening when it was deposited.

Petros says horizon. That I've heard of.

I'm appealing my grade
A coal seam was deposited during warm climes,so a sandstone stringer in the middle of it means one of a few things,either a huge dust storm,a flood or some other environmental anomaly.A bentonite stringer usually is because of a volcanic eruption somewhere.
Stringers are environmental anomalies.

Why do I need a link?

You don't need it, I do because I'm not in the habit of believing something just because someone says so. But you're not exactly accustomed to providing evidence for your claims. I didn't actually expect you to post a link, thought I would ask anyways though.

How do I link to a magazine I read 10 years ago?

Hah! You deleted the bunch of text you just posted...which said:
Roughly 56 percent of all scientists and engineers in the U.S. Army are employed by the Army Research and Development Command.

That's a far cry from saying 56% of all scientists are employed by the military.

:lol:

I know my answer was BS - I was just having a bit of fun and giving Flossy a chance to holler Eureka (followed by finger stabs into the air).

Universities carry out the bulk of research correct? How many work at them and how many scientist are cranked out ea year and go off to find jobs in military and private sector? Use you head for once.

The point im trying to make is a stringer can represent a huge weather anomaly that occured at the time of deposition,it could have been a meteor impact or some other disaster like a volcanic eruption.

That's not really a controversial claim at all. Why do you think that would invalidate radiative physics?

Oh I don't know about that. University researchers publish more, for certain. The research a company like mine works on isn't published, because it's proprietary business information. Militaries doesn't publish much of their R&D, because it has national security implications.

How many work at them and how many scientist are cranked out ea year and go off to find jobs in military and private sector?

I have no idea, but I wouldn't make specific claims about how many, or what proportion of the the total number of active researchers work in which sectors without some kind of evidence.

The stringer alone represents dramatic climate change at the time of deposition

Yes, so what?

Well i'm from an era that predates google and rely on memory. Are you saying my memory is ****ty?
