This is Bob Beatty,
successful Australian mining engineer
inventor of the The Overburden Slusher system of stripping
The TOP NET adaption to dragline buckets
Truck-Jig method for truck ramping
and
The Co-Axial Pipe conveyor transport system
Free-thinking amateur astronomer
and author of the FIRST Geological Timescale that defines not
only the past but the FUTURE:
the Universal Dynamic Stage Development Sequence
But this is not just another apocalyptic vision by
some hack evangelist...
Through the application of the concept of a STEADY-STATE
UNIVERSE,
Bob has recognised that our present geological age is the DRIFT stage
to be followed by a SEDATE
stage
and then
a stage of HIBERNATION
until the next universal cycle comes to pass...
Doomsayers relax. The future is... BORING
The answers to all of these mysteries (and quite a
few others you probably hadn't thought of) are revealed
in Bob Beatty's self-published magnum opus:
Latest version of PSL here.
hmmm... GET ME THE HELL OUTTA HERE
