#6 Considering that the Earth's surface is 75% water, it would follow that any random asteriod strike would also have a 75% chance of ocean effects. But they act suprised. |

#4 In the last few decades amazingly strong deep water currents have been discovered; these 'may' explain the apparent 'mega-ripples.' |

#3 "Kinsland believes the ripples are the imprint" I'll wait on this. |

#1 All very well and good (bad news for the Dinos, though) but still germane should one consider the seismic analysis performed to identify 'ripples' in a seabed 5000 ft deep. Imagine what cave and tunnel structures can have been mapped from recent opportunistic (targeted?) explosions. |
