    Description: Marine Upper Jurassic sediments have recently been reported from South Africa (Knysna Outlier, Cape Province) for the first time1. They occur as shallow water, sandy clays (Brenton Beds) in association with terrestrial/fluviatile conglomerates and sandstones, which were deposited in an approximately east-west elongate intermontane basin between the Cape Fold mountains (formed of Lower Palaeozoic sediments). Post-Cretaceous erosion has reduced the original deposits to a series of small, isolated outliers, only two of which have been reported to contain marine sediments (Knysna, lower Upper Jurassic; Algoa, Valanginian2) (Fig. 1). Extensive Neocomian-Maas-trichtian outcrops are known from the continental shelf off to the south of South Africa3, and a complete mid-Jurassic to Upper Cretaceous marine succession is suspected on the Agulhas Bank infilling and overlying east-west striking, fault bounded folds of Lower Palaeozoic Cape Supergroup rocks as shown in Fig. 1 (R. V. D., in preparation and refs. 1 and 4).

    Notes: [Auszug] PUBLIC discussion of the Dainton and Rothschild reports has so far been more of a whispering campaign than a debate. Among academic scientists, there are frequently to be heard fierce expressions of scorn for Rothschild, but there has so far been no convincing demonstration that university ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THERE are several possible ways of explaining the redshift of the emission lines observed in the spectra of quasars. The most obvious view, and the one that is most widely accepted, is that quasars are at cosmological distances, and that their redshifts are due to the expansion of the universe ...
