Thanks for that Dharma.

I hope Atlantis exists. I recently saw a program in which genetic DNA from

a yeti hair

from Bhutan (not bear, not ape) was found and analysed. So we have an

unknown creature. Eventually we might come across it . . .

Until then it is 7 foot tall and wears a green hat.

As you are in UK you might have seen the recent program about the celts and

some of their intricate craftsmanship. Such things are of interest. Fantasy

is fun.

Sometimes the mind confuses the two. Why not? Why indeed . . .

I can tell you about a crystal wand (based on Atlantean channeled

technology - that did focus positive ions - as in an ionizer does - using

nothing more than quartz and copper - however it could just as easily have

come from a giant hovering invisible space craft - different cult - that's all)

We have a story. Agreed. We have a story.

Think how many other stories we have . . .

Great fun . . . stories . . .

We have large stones.

In other words we have ruins. Great stuff - worth investigating. There may

be artefacts.

We have more ruins. Hooray.

Secret ruins. We have a conspiracy of silence.

We have a story.

We have nothing.

It always amazes me how crypto-archeology puts

2 and 2 together and gets 5000.

I remember one of these worthy 'scientists' with books to his discredit

was explaining how the Aztecs used polished round mirrors and the sun to

cut precisely

the stones they used in their miraculous pyramid ziggurat temples.

A more conventional and plausible scientist was able to mimic the stone

building of the Aztecs using stone tools and a simple building strategy.

Meanwhile the demonstrated advanced technology of the sun mirror/laser

could not light paper - let alone cut through rock.

The effect of Atlantis has been on the imagination.

All other evidence language, traded artefacts, outposts

and so on is rather like the effects of the Millennium Virus (remember that)

gone . . .

 

Ah well

Welcome to the real world
