Well, I live in upstate New York and our bedrock is dominated by Ordovician, Silurian, and Devonian (especially where I live) sedimentary rocks formed when this area was covered by a shallow sea. So in the EE model they would have to accept that portions of the "continents" were covered by ocean at that time. But you have much older Metamorphic rocks in the Adirondacks.

I would be interested in ExpErdMann's thoughts on the evidence for sedimentation dating back billions of years. The bedrock in upstate NY west of the catskills is known as the Catskill Delta and is thought to have been derived from erosion following a mountain building episode to the East. We see evidence for this in the transition of Devonian rocks from sandstones in the eastern part of the state to siltstones where I am and finally to predominately shales in the western part of the state. Can the kind of mountain formation that generated this massive deposit have originated in the EE model?
