The article is a bit of a mess. They scientists wonder if an event 13,000 years ago hit both the tusks of living animals and tusks that had been lying on the surface for 20,000 years. What the article does not address is whether only the 13,000-year-old samples had healed around the particle strikes.
A couple of guys tried to drive unrefueled cross-country in a VW Rabbit (or Jetta?) diesel. I recall that they somehow crammed a 55-gallon drum into the car. The attempt ended when the driver passed out and got the car stuck in the median.

All better now. That was fast! (But it is amusing how the phone representative and her manager were so good at formulating company policy on-the-fly like that!)
I see nothing here that was not known from the story of one week ago. I cannot find a point in the original article or today's articles where someone misread their slide rule, or a napkin got wet and someone mistransfered some figures. The consistent message from the start has been that all groups neglected to consider some basic forces involved when the device is in use.
