No, I'm not saying that the 'soft material' inside the fossils is fresh. It's obvious that it's not.
If you've checked out the online articles from National Geographic that I posted below you'll see that the very nature of the strangely-preserved soft material is causing evolutionary scientists to throw all their old theories of fossilization out the window. They say, 'Our current theories do not allow for this to happen.'
What I find intruiguing is that scientists have admitted that an 'impossible' thing has happened but they simply have no explantion (yet) how it has happened. Soft material being preserved in a pliable state with veins, proteins, etc. still identifiable would seem to speak of fossils more along the lines of 10,000 years old than 70,000,000 years old.
