I tend to stay away from geology I always found it terribly frustrating because you would never know if you were right in your lifetime.

The one thing that always made me chuckle was the prediction in 250 Million years all the continents end up back together (http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2000/ast06oct_1/) .... thinking about the current political situations between countries I always laughed at the prospect :-)

I believe in "Evil, Bad, Ungodly fantasy science and maths", so I am undoubtedly wrong to you.
