Link?
Don't need a link. It's general knowledge. Naturally evolutionists
aren't familar with knowledge that curtails their belief system.
Or your 'general knowledge' is incorrect, such as in this case.
Other interesting things to note:
Evolutionists were also mistaken at one time or another, in the
past that:
1. Stalactites and stalagmites take millions of years to form.
Not so. Such structures are also found under modern buildings.
In the local fish hatchery museum, in my town, is a picture of
bat that had gotten frozen into a stalactites. So much for
evolution myths.
First up this is chemistry/rock formation not evolution and
secondly no one said all such formations take millions of years.
Some take tens of years - it depends on what is forming from what.
Actually you can get field trips to caverns and the tour guide will
spout thousands if not millions of years to wide-eyed youngsters.
I've heard it myself.
As has been mentioned, the length of time it takes to form depends on
the formation, the material in the overlaying rocks, the water flow,
the acidity of the water, the air flow in the cavern, and a number of
other factors.
You seem to believe that because in one instance a process takes a
specific time that all similar processes take the same time. In the
case of caves, the guides will repeat what they are told which in
turn is based on a number of factors, including those I mentioned
above. In other words, what the guides repeat in any given location
is correct for that location and that location only. When, in the
majority of cases, a specific time frame is consistent it is used as
a general statement.
Guides tell their people what their scientists and experts told them:
http://geology.wr.usgs.gov/parks/cave/index.html
"Caves are natural features and should be protected, but many have
been vandalized by careless visitors or damaged by poorly planned
commercial development. Some caves have been stripped of speleothems
which took thousands of years to form and in many places will not form
again. All should try to prevent this random destruction of these
natural wonderlands. Follow the footprints of others; look but don't
touch; bring away only photographs; leave no evidence of your visit."

How does that counter what I said? I stated that the conditions of each
cave presents different time frames for the development of stalactites
and their buddies. That means that some will be relatively rapid, as in
thousands of years, and others would be much longer. If something as
simple as CO2 content changes the rate will change. If something as
simple as water supply changes the rate of change will... change.
