I found this on religious tolerance. If you would like to see some of the rebuttals they have against it(which rely solely on the assumption that the speed of light hasn't remained the same, as well as that of nature used to be much faster) http://www.religioustolerance.org/oldearth.htm

Creation science teaches that all of the land animals (except the ones in the ark) who were alive at the time of the flood drowned. Some turned into fossils and were trapped in the layers of sedimentary rock which were laid down by the flood. Robert Schadewald computed that if all of the animals in the Karroo Formation in Africa were alive at one time and evenly spaced around the entire land surface of earth, that there would be 21 animals (ranging in size from a small lizard to a cow) per acre. A very conservative estimate is that there are 99 fossils elsewhere on earth for each fossil in the Karroo Formation. Thus, assuming that all of these animals were evenly distributed, there would have been over 2,100 living animals per acre of land - "ranging from tiny shrews to immense dinosaurs" when the flood hit. This is clearly impossible.
To make the creation science story even more unlikely, only a small percentage of animals ever form fossils when they die. Assuming that 1 of each 100 land animals is fossilized, (an outrageously high number) then there would be 5 land animals per square feet of earth. There would have been wall-to-wall animals, if not multiple-layers of animals. Of course, if all of the fossils had been formed over hundreds of millions of years, then only a very small fraction of the animals would have been present at any one time. There would not have been sufficient animals alive at any one time to crowd each other excessively.

The word ''day'' in the Bible can mean, 24 hours, 1 week, 100 years, 1000, years, 1.000.000 years. Depends on the situation.
