Post ICR's Impact 353 - Po-halos are NOT primordial!

This appears to be a major retreat:

<a href="http://www.icr.org/pubs/imp/imp-353.htm" target="_blank">http://www.icr.org/pubs/imp/imp-353.htm</a>

If you strip away the expected attempts at spin, it appears that the Po-halos = instantly created granite argument has been abandoned. They are now evidence of very fast hydrothermal action during the Flood.

Anyone have any comment on the article?

I guess my only comment would be: What took so long? The ICR article refers to halos being found in 'flood' granites (such as <a href="http://www.gpc.peachnet.edu/~pgore/stonemtn/stonemountain.html" target="_blank">Stone Mountain, GA</a>). But even the original halos documented by Gentry from the Canadian shield were found in rocks that could not possibly have been instantly created, based on their relationships with surrounding sedimentary and igneous rocks (as documented so well by <a href="http://www.csun.edu/~vcgeo005/gentry/tiny.htm" target="_blank">J.R. Wakefield</a>).
