Does anyone have any links for amino acid racemezation? replacement 2 carbon 14 dating...?
Amino acid racemezation is the process the body uses to store genetic information in the bones. Using x-ray to activate, then open top MRI, the body tells its own species, age of subject and other information.
When I first read of it, it did not give date of invention nor name of inventor, but it dated the Oldest living human skeleton on reacord (Peking Man) at only 9,000 not 50,000 as current intel has it.
Does anyone have any links on this?
Also....where a source of Californium might be found? Carbon 14 can only be made using it. It is a radioactive material that shoots out electrons. Carbon 12 has to be bombarded with it for 3-4 months in a chamber and pick up 2 more electrons (supposed to get neutrons added not e).
Also not uranium 238, but strontium 238 (to get/use chronoton particles to transmit pictures and sound through time).
Any good periodi table of current elements with complete details available online at this time? Please provide link(s).
Thanks,

because perhaps they think the elements used to form the earth are older than the earth itself so they dispute the age of the earth. for example carbon 14 was used on a "LIVING" mollusk and the age of the mollusk was said to be thousands of years old.....(Very doubtful seeing that it was still alive)."The troubles of the radiocarbon dating method are undeniably deep and serious. Despite 35 years of technological refinement and better understanding, the underlying assumptions have been strongly challenged, and warnings are out that radiocarbon may soon find itself in a crisis situation. Continuing use of the method depends on a fix-it-as-we-go approach, allowing for contamination here, fractionation there, and calibration whenever possible. It should be no surprise then, that fully half of the dates are rejected. The wonder is, surely, that the remaining half has come to be accepted…. No matter how useful it is, though, the radiocarbon method is still not capable of yielding accurate and reliable results. There are gross discrepancies, the chronology is uneven and relative, and the accepted dates are actually the selected dates.” The accuracy of carbon-14 dating relies on faulty assumptions, and is subject to human bias. At best, radiocarbon dating is only accurate for the past few thousand years. As we’ve seen though, even relatively youthful samples are often dated incorrectly.
