Touches all the bases for the biblical story & gives at least some credence as to why a angry 'god' would have been responsible. How else would people from that time interpret it?

Makes a whole lot more sense than the story of Sky Daddy having a bitch about people behaving like people, getting his knickers in a twist and raining down fire and brimstone upon.
One only has have look at the Meteor Air-burst over Russia and the devastation of the one that flattened a huge area of forest over that way as well to see that it stands to reason.
