Introduction.

This is my first activity as an editor. Please forgive me my offenses against the English language, it is not my native language. My contribution to Wikipedia consists of a series of completely different views on the history of Homo Sapiens, on geology and several other subjects. Those different views are based on and initiated by inconsistencies. Some have nagged me more than 60 years before I found satisfying answers. Let me give you two examples.

Example 1: the frozen, standing mammoths in Siberia. Those animals seem to be somehow un-exist-able. 1. Like all members of the elephant family, they could not live without liquid water. But they are many weeks walking away from the nearest liquid water and eating snow or ice would kill have them within a day by under-cooling. 2. The same applies to the food that they have in there mouth and stomach. 3. Animals, equipped to live in permafrost, have a thick layer of fat under their skin and a thick white pelt. Mammoths are missing both. 4. They must have died by under-cooling after their legs were solidly frozen, otherwise they would have collapsed.

Example 2.: the time scale. Homo Sapiens exists for some half million years. The present population of Earth needed only some five millennia to advance from Stone Age to collecting stones on the Moon. What have our predecessors done during the other 495 millennia? Or did they go to the Moon as a start and the the stars some decades later, selecting the most brilliant and important people to go there, leaving the dumb behind? And if they did, did they leave 60 or 150 or 400 millennia ago?

My first article is named "Geology 1" and will follow soonest.
