A few years ago, there was a YEC-connected poster in the paleontology
session at the Geological Society of America. It reported a mass mortality
event for some Paleozoic cephalopods and said nothing about the age of the
earth, global flooding, etc. I did hear some disparaging comments about
their motives, but it seemed reasonable as far as it went. However, I only
remember one accurate, current claim from the ICR participant in a debate
here at UNC a few years ago.
