ok, I must not have better things to do then to lie away musing over stuff like this....but I do subscribe to the expanding earth theory, but just wonder where all the water came from that filled the oceans/etc?
any ideas from people more brilliant then I?..:-)
*********
The expanding Earth or growing Earth hypothesis asserts that the position and relative movement of continents is at least partially due to the volume of Earth increasing. Conversely, geophysical global cooling was the hypothesis that various features could be explained by Earth contracting.
Although it was suggested historically, since the recognition of plate tectonics in the 1970s, scientific consensus has rejected any significant expansion or contraction of Earth.
In 1889 and 1909 Roberto Mantovani published a hypothesis of Earth expansion and continental drift. He assumed that a closed continent covered the entire surface of a smaller Earth. Thermal expansion led to volcanic activity, which broke the land mass into smaller continents. These continents drifted away from each other because of further expansion at the rip-zones, where oceans currently lie.[7][8] Although Alfred Wegener noticed some similarities to his own hypothesis of continental drift, he did not mention Earth expansion as the cause of drift in Mantovani's hypothesis.[9]

Hi kay,
the information on the nuclearplanet website may get you one step further
http://www.nuclearplanet.com/Hilgenberg.html
http://www.nuclearplanet.com/cv4.pdf
Marvin Herndon's cv4 contains summaries of his works.
While browsing through nuclearplanet.com I have not found an answer to your water question. And I don't know if Hilgenberg's orginal work reveals details about how water is generated. More searching is needed.

Hi kay,
I found an excerpt from a book published in 2003
on Hilgenberg and his theory.
this is how I found it:
https://www.thefullwiki.org/Ott_Christoph_Hilgenberg
https://www.earth-prints.org/handle/2122/2015
this is the book chapter:
https://www.earth-
prints.org/bitstream/2122/2015/1/Hilgenberg%20%282%29.pdf
It may give you some answers.
