so let me get this straight. You don't think it is possible for a cloud to collapse under gravity, and for the particles to stick together over time due to collisions and gravitational perturabations, however you do think it is possible for bits to be fired from earth, pass through the orbits of multiple planets into a neat mostly circular orbit ignoring the kirkwood gaps, be pushed out and circularised by some unknown force and then to stick together over time due to collisions and gravitational perturbations.
No. You've misunderstood me. If you start a new thread, I'll explain.

This one's really about Glenn and Animal Burrows. He's done trying to defend himself and has resorted to name calling. I really thought he would stay above that, but no. Did you ever get over there to read the debate? It's pretty eyeopening to see his behavior and his inability to defend his position.
