All of which provides some useful perspective on the strange fossilised rock formations at Jennings Randolph Lake in Mineral County, West Virginia. Pictured below, the formations have been dated to around 300 million years BC and pronounced as a 'natural formation' by the relevant authorities. But take a look and ask yourself: does this look like a natural formation? Like the fossilised shoe print found by engineer and geologist John T. Reid in Nevada, (Worlds Before Our Own 2, The Seeker no 5) these patterns look distinctly like they were manmade. Yet the various authorities that adjudicate over our past have judged it to be 'natural'; or like the fossilised shoeprints found by Reid and dated at 248 million years BC, sometimes pronounced a bizarre 'freak of nature.'

However, these anomalies may not only concern our past; they may indeed have relevance to our future too...
