Billy Joe Fudge poses question on Adair geological oddity

He wonders why soil over bedrock is 20 times more in Sparksville than the Flatwoods

Billy Joe Fudge writes:
Mr. Garmon, I'm greatly humbled in the presence of such scientific prowess. I, as I'm sure you are painfully aware, have a Doctorate in "Much Knowledge About Little". I know your eyes are glassing over with jealously but I cannot help bragging a bit by adding that I am "well-respected" in this discipline.

Nevertheless, on a more serious note and just in case I'm ever presented with the following query in a trivia tournament, "would you mind explaining why it is only 3 to 7 feet to the bedrock in the Flatwoods while there is as much as 60 feet of soil on top of the bedrock on Sparks Ridge"? - Billy Joe Fudge
