[BITList] Rocks

[x50type]

They are known as ‘sailing rocks’

Located in a remote area of California's Death Valley National Park, the heavy stones appear to move across the dried lake bed known as Racetrack Playa, leaving a trail behind them in the cracked mud.

A research team calculated that under certain winter conditions in Death Valley, enough water and ice could form to float the rocks across the muddy bottom of Racetrack Playa in a light breeze, leaving a trail in the mud as the rocks moved.
Nonetheless, some visitors to Death Valley seem to prefer more occult explanations for the sailing stones.

"People always ask, 'What do you think causes them to move?' But if you try to explain, they don't always want to hear the answers," van Valkenburg said. "People like a mystery — they like an unanswered question."

G'day Colin, 

    For more than 30 years I sought the truth and now, what ever I receive via the internet gets the same treatment – whether it is the tallest woman in the world, muslims over running France, the canon carrying, eight engine Russian aircraft or leaping photographers, I doubt it’s veracity, investigate accordingly and report my findings.



I'm looking forward to reading your findings on this one…
