The story about aliens being stacked around volcanoes and blown to bits with hydrogen bombs doesn't fly with the evidence either. If thousands of hydrogen bombs were detonated 75 million years ago, we would surely see a mass extinction in the fossil record, as well as a geologic layer of radioactive material. We don't.

It's just as loony as believing in magic carpets, leprechauns, the tooth fairy, astrology, the flat earth theory, talking evil snakes, boats capable of holding every land species on the planet, or virgins being impregnated by the giant invisible dictator of the universe that nobody can see or hear.
perhaps thats what wiped out the dinosaurs...
