>I do not see how any reasonable person who read Davidovitz' book could fail to accept his arguments. "I favour Morris' & Davidovits' theory simply because there is so much more evidence supporting it." to me, that sounds like a very condescending attitude. e.g., here's another reading: http://www.catchpenny.org/theories.html

Thanks for that rational examination, tsuwm. It served to confirm my faith as a fully-paid up nullifidian

Dear tsuwm: I solemnly swear I do not regard myself sufficiently endowed with wisdom to be " condescending" to any Board member, much less to you whom I cheerfully regard as better qualified than I am. I simply meant that I read the book carefully, and was impressed with the completeness with which he covered all of the questions that might be reasonably asked. Too bad the book is not readily available, and that so many of the pertinent sites have been removed from Yahoo.

vast monoliths raised by the power we exert as hive creatures
Most noteably the Easter Island monoltihs... now there's a curious dilemma, since they hardly had the manpower on those small, sparsely populated islands to exert the power to raise them!  Oh, well, then it must have been the space people, right mav?

Remember that Thor Heyerdahl was shown by a bunch of Easter Islanders how they did it.

<< They say that Cuba once was a much larger island that was home to an advanced civilization.>>
Visiting Venice Beach, CA a couple of years ago, I was handed a pamphlet suggesting that the reason Atlantis had proven so difficult to find up until then was that it was actually in the Pacific.

of Easter Island and Thor Heyerdahl
I saw a documentary on that recently, Dr, Bill, (and I've also avidly followed the explorations of Heyerdahl over the
years), and I believe what Thor did was recruit islanders in an attempt to move a stone the size of the monoliths in a variety of ways based on his theories and the islanders' ancient legends. However, all efforts finally proved to be futile, and they abandoned the project with no satisfactory conclusions reached.

For skeptic and believer alike! Here's a truly mesmerizing story of a diminutive Latvian immigrant, Edward Leedskalnin, who constructed a castle and monuments to his unrequited love in Florida. Leedskalnin was only 5'1" and 100 lbs., had only a grammar school education, and yet managed to move blocks of stone that weighed twice as much as the largest pyramid constuction blocks ALONE! When asked how he could do such a thing he replied, simply, that he knew the laws of leverage that the ancient Egyptians knew. I'm not sure what to make of it. But, however he did it, it stands as a truly remarkable feat! He took the engineering secrets to the grave with him, but Coral Castle still stands today in Florida as a National Historic Landmark. Here's the URL's for perusal: http://www.cosmiverse.com/paranormal062101.html http://www.coralcastle.com/ (for great pictures...and don't miss the Nine Ton Gate thumbnail!) I'd love to hear some reactions on this! Enjoy!

Thanks for the links, Whitman O'Neill. I like the pictures on the second url. However, this sentence from the first url made me laugh: Noted ufologist B. J. Cathe suggests that Leedskalnin did, in fact, understand the mysteries of weight, leverage, and leverage used by the ancients in a secret world energy grid.
