Turtle, I admitted I was puzzled about the belief of Earth's core being iron and the only two related theories I knew anything about seemed illogical to me, even absurd. Then I asked if anyone had a more plausible theory. Just a simple question, hardly a claim about anything or any need for anyone to go thru an earlier thread's subject. Seems to me you don't understand a simple question made in all sincerity or perhaps you don't know of any other theory and prefer to insult instead of inform. That's your problem. Please stop trying to switch the issue. That dog sure don't hunt and appears counter to the expressed intent of this website.

Pyrotex, Really impressed with your explanation. I always appreciate learning something new. Doing better than most at 76. You make a good teacher. Wish you had been my major professor instead of the dogmatic types who stated their geophysical beliefs as being set in stone; many of which have been overturned with more recent discoveries. I sincerely appreciate the time and effort you expended and will give your words sincere thought. Still not exactly sure about what you proposed, but I can't thank you enough for the information and will try to understand it better over the next few days.

Hard to find time for same, due to being a 24/7 care-giver, with the only time I have to spare is when she is sleeping with the breathing machine and monitor.

Any other theories available?

Best Regards to those who responded in a positive and informative manner. CharlieO
