There is more to Hu's analogy than meets the eye. In the past few years, physicists have made models of warped regions of space-time from fluids, and found that the two are eerily similar. Taking that together with similarities in the underlying mathematics, Hu suspects space-time isn't just like a fluid - it is a fluid (see "Cold, dark and... wet?").

In such extreme conditions, he says, space-time could well have changed from one phase to another, meaning it didn't have a definite beginning at all. What we think of as the big bang was just the moment of condensation. The big condensation, you might say. Or, if we are still in rewind, the big boil.

We know that the earliest known remains of Cro-Magnon-like humans are radiometrically dated to 35,000 years ago though there are important finds indicating that modern human types may have existed on earth millions of years ago. Naturally, these finds are suppressed by the evolutionists (recall their missionary zeal to spread their religion). Anyway, I have a problem with the date of the appearance of Cro-Magnon and here's why: In my book, Secret History, I cite the research of Richard Firestone and William Topping which demonstrates that there are a number of events - including cometary or asteroid impacts, not to mention a host of less dramatic things, that can - and have! - 'reset' the carbon dating clock (as well as problems with other forms of dating). Because we are fairly certain that there have been numerous such events, we have to assume that things that are radiometrically dated are probably much older, perhaps by a factor of two. So, I'm going to go with that for this hypothesis. (See Secret History for a detailed discussion of this problem.)

In addition, the mammoths had hair hanging down to their toes, yet every arctic animal has fur, not hair on their toes. Hair would have caused snow to cake on its ankles and hinder walking.

The above clearly shows that fur is not a proof of cold-adaptation and neither is fat. Fat only proves that food is plentiful. A fat, overfed dog could not withstand an arctic blizzard and its -80F (-60° Celsius) temperatures. On the contrary, creatures like arctic rabbits or caribous can, despite their relative low fat to body mass ratio.
