[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1196695, member: 17767"] There is a process going on in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The process is called sea floor spreading. Magma wells up from the core of the earth and the forces pushes new sea floor out along the mid Pacific rift. The new sea floor pushes plates of earth out laterally in a process called plate tectonics. One of those plates engages the west coast of the US. As the plate pushes downward on the California coast, it is causing a rift inland that endangers the State of California. This is a natural process of force beyond our imagination on a planetary scale. Gandalf is not the force behind this. It is a natural process. The Appalachian Mountains are one of the oldest mountain ranges on earth. Estimated to be 480 million years old. Mountain ranges are built by a natural process called orogeny. Orogeny is the result of the engagement of tectonic plates much like sea floor spreading. When these plates engage, it results in a large structural deformation of the Earth's lithosphere (crust and uppermost mantle). Gandalf did not do it. It is a natural process. The Appalachian mountains were once higher than the Rocky Mountains but 480 million years of a natural process called erosion has reduced them to a fraction of their previous grandeur. Gandalf didn’t do it, it is the result of 480 million years of rain, wind, and mass wasting. [/QUOTE]
