The information in your post is incorrect and obviously based on something you read in one of your textbooks or on a website.
Unfortunately, it's full of propaganda and disinformation in the form of vast assumptions.
Because there is so much blatantly incorrect information here that needs to be straightened out, I will be posting links to web pages and videos that will help the reader sort it all out (for those who care -- and there are many of them).

One of the biggest problems for flood geology is the sheer QUANTITY of biologically derived material buried in the earth.
The vast assumption here is that it requires biologically-derived material. Knowing that this assumption is incorrect invalidates the remainder of your statement.
The information in these videos represents currently-observed processes and dissolves the foundation of your argument, completely.

There are other problems with flood geology, such as how large structures of evaporite minerals could make layers during the flood. Evaporites are types of rock created by evaporation. You can evaporate a whole lake of very "salty" water and get mere millimeters of salt or gypsum to accumulate. Some large evaporite layers are dozens of meters tall.
You could say that the flood receded and allowed time to evaporate before returning but that would not be consistent. Remember the Bible says that there was only one flood. There is also a problem considering the amount of time it would take to produce these layers in the earth that are then buried by even more layers that have different properties that take time that just simply cannot fit into a year time frame.
The process you are referring to is sedimentation. This is an observed, reproducible physical process that is well-known today.
Your arguments are decades old. (Sorry)

There is also genetic evidence -- or should I say lack thereof, for a global flood. If the Biblical Flood had happened, there would have been a bottleneck event in EVERY species of living thing and all pointing to exactly the same period; also, that bottleneck would be almost yesterday as gentic time goes.
There are two assumptions here that are incorrect.
First, the irregularities in dating methods (the noise induced in the output data when dealing with short time periods) obfuscates the bottleneck. You admitted yourself that it's almost like "yesterday" in geologic terms. Remember, dating methods don't have that kind of reproducible resolution.

Geneticists can see bottle neck events in some species, but they are all at different times and most are tens or hundreds of thousands of years in the past. The genetic information shows that there has not been a single unique bottleneck event affecting all species. Hence, no global flood that wiped out all but two of every "kind."
Again, Linda, you are unable to separate the signal from the noise making their claims completely speculative. Knowing what you claim to know, you should realize this.

Angular unconformities – Angular unconformities are where sediments are laid down in layers, then tilted and eroded, then new sediments are deposited on top. How does a global flood simultaneously deposit, tilt, and erode in the same exact place?
It's astonishing that you bring this up because this is in direct contradiction to previous arguments that you've made.
Here is the information you need to know to make the model work as it does in real life:
Radiometric dating – All common forms of radiometric dating, including C14, K-Ar, Ar-Ar, Rb-Sr, Th-Pb, U-Pb, and fission track. The dates derived from these diverse methods, when properly interpreted rather than intentionally misapplied, show that all but the very most recent deposits in the geologic column are vastly older than the Biblical flood.
We've already shown in previous arguments that this dating method is a joke and should not be used.
For more information about 5 year old shoes being dated as thousands of years old by radiometric dating, see this video:
Fossil Sorting – The sorting of fossils in the geologic record is consistent with evolution and geology across all formations worldwide. There are basically no fossils of dinosaurs found with modern mammals, even when such dinosaurs could fly. There are no flowering plants in the Cambrian, no grasses, no mammals, and no birds. The overall sorting does not show any evidence consistent with a flood or settling in water.
This information is blatantly untrue. Even most modern evolutionists know this.
You also need to recognize that the geologic column is a myth. You should know by now that it is only consistent in about 20 places around the world, and these are the places that evolutionists focus on. Unfortunately, they exclude all other locations, and therefore this is a deliberate sin of omission.
This is not science. It is propaganda to desperately indoctrinate people into the evolution faith, for the profit of its promoters.

Paleomagnetism – Because the Earth’s magnetic field has reversed polarity and has wandered over the globe in the past, certain igneous rocks show such preferred magnetic orientations when sufficiently cooled. By mapping these directions and reversals, which correlate with radioisotope dating and stratigraphy, it is easily shown that the vast majority of seafloor sediments, along with most volcanic rock, are way too old to have been deposited by any flood. In fact such measurements are one of the great evidences for plate tectonics, which alone invalidate a global flood.
Again, this statement is untrue on several accounts.
First, magnetic field measurements do not correlate with radioisotope dating neither do they correlate with stratigraphy.
Again, you have done ZERO research on this subject and are only parroting websites that say things you like to hear.

Coprolites – Coprolites, which are fossilized turds, are preserved throughout the fossil record. How does a flood have animals constantly crapping in the midst of a flood after they are exterminated?
The flaw here (again) is dating. By shifting dates, you can make it look as if anything happened at any time you wish.
You are having blind faith in your evolution-clergy... Not wise Linda.
Please, do your homework and take the time to read opposing scientific articles.
You could easily conclude that amalgam (mercury-based) dental fillings are safe if you limit yourself to the information from the ADA and AMA.
You have told me to open my mind (which is already open), yet you filter your reading material to that which pleases your own fundamentalist-evolutionist faith.

There are many more "silver-bullet" evidences that disprove a global flood. What I listed here are merely some of them. Can any creationists here explain any of them? Please stay on topic.
No there is not. In fact, when you do your homework, you will find overwhelming evidence for a global flood. Your statement is the result of you blindly believing what you are told. Not smart Linda.
