 It's the weekend and you're baking a cake for the gang for the big game and so you put down a layer of cake like this and Then it's got to be for the Penn State game. So then you're going to put in a Little blue icing so it's more enjoyable and you're going to make another layer of cake on top of that Still sitting there, but you're a good baker. It's really very impressive And we'll put some more Penn State blue icing in the middle And then you put down one more layer of cake to make the top of the thing and wow This is getting to be fairly serious when all is said and done And then you're gonna gonna ice the top of that and wow in that beautiful And then you want to put some candles on it's going to be Wisconsin game and Wisconsin's going to get burned So so you better put on some some Wisconsin red candles and they have a little Wicks sitting out the top of them like that and then you're carrying the cake across the floor and your big Gug comes up and takes a chimangas bite out of your cake, which doesn't necessarily make you entirely happy And so now your cake is going to look something more like this with this big hole out of it And the hole goes all the way down something like that Oh dear what a mess the dog made out of the cake And you're really very very unhappy about what your dog did to it because you were carrying the cake while this happens And you happen to know that if you're carrying the cake while it happens that you You may lose your grip and the cake turns upside down Which is now a real mess and the candles get scrunched and so they no longer sticking down the way They're supposed to be they're actually sort of sticking off to the side the way they get bent over Now if you were to see this if you were to find this cake on the floor You would have absolutely no trouble telling what happened and the sequence of events in which they happened in the same way a Geologist faced with something such as a rock viewed edge on that has Some mud cracks in it like this. There's a crack says oh this rock is right side up It has not been turned over because we know that when mud cracks that the cracks go down into the rock Not up in the same sense if the geologist was faced with some sort of a footprint And let's make a dinosaur footprint here if you would like to Do-de-do-de-do here's a big footprint, okay? And the footprint is stuck down into the rock something like that And so you can see this as and how it might have happened somehow And that's not the world's finest footprint drawing, but you get the idea what we're trying to do That has been shoved down into a rock So there's a big hole here where the footprint was made if you Were to happen to find that footprint and you were going to have to find that footprint as Being upside down as we can make it very easily with the flip vertically You would know that and so geologists do that they can put things in order in the same way that you can look at that That squish cake and put it in order
