Crustal movement indicates that the continents were much closer together even 78 - 90 million years ago than they are today. Making continental drift due to expansion extremely unlikely.

WOW!! Those are some pretty LARGE numbers - I'm not sold out on either position here, but I'm curious as to how solid those times are? How do you
know they're correct and not based on some (possibly 'flawed') assumptions? Is it at all possible that they're wrong (and let's not get all religious about it - it's not beyond questioning
)?
