And as soon as the water emerges from under the ice sheet, it now has this free surface and the whole pressure regime changes. And so the, the, uh, the drum lens are only going to be found where there were glaciers. And so, I mean, there's thousands of them. Yeah.

And interestingly, just like if you start scanning to the west, Brian, sorry, you're going to see, look at the orientation of the drumlins changes. Wow. So the orientation of those drumlins converges on the same spot as the finger lakes. And I think there's a reason for that. And I have a theory as to how you explain that.

Yes. But then you've got to explain, okay, why is the water discharging from a central, an epicenter? Why is it? Oh, I knew you were going to ask that question. Well, okay. So my speculation, after thinking what are all of the possible explanations, I think there's one that, Oh, sorry. One that sort of, uh, explains it better than any others. And that is, uh, a hypervelocity impact. Yeah. Okay.

Yeah. I, in fact, my studies on the Carolina bays probably preceded Chris. Okay. Okay. I have aerial photographs of the bays that I took in the early 90s when I was trying to figure out what the hell they were.

I don't know. And I'm not convinced this is an impact. But I would lean in the direction that it's the most likely explanation. And I don't think that, yeah. See, my first awareness of the bays, yeah, look at that. They're amazing. Whatever the explanation is, it's amazing. They're incredible. And so I think I first learned about the bays around 1980. I was reading a book called...

I was interested in the whole, okay, so what's the deal on Atlantis, right? And I knew that there had been Ignatius Donnelly, who was from Minnesota, my home state, I'd learned about him, and I looked up, and by the late 70s, I had read during my early catastrophist phase, I'd read two books by him.

One was Atlantis, the antediluvian world, I believe it was, written in like 1882, and then it followed up a year later with Ragnarok, the Age of Fire and Gravel. And I had read those books, and Ignatius Donnelly in Ragnarok, The Age of Fire and Gravel, proposed that Atlantis was destroyed during a much larger catastrophe that was triggered by a comet impact. Now, this is like 1883.
