This is an article I found on the web (http://www.ancientx.com/nm/
anmviewer.asp?a=75&z=1) about the 10 most puzzling ancient artifacts:
That web site is, on the woo-woo scale of 1-10, a 37. It also appears
to be set up to sell 'lectures' on their woo-woo-ism, for those who
can't find enough kook-crap free on-line.
To the extent that you, Bolaleman, are in fact interested in these
well-debunked bits of lies, try the Google. Judicious use of the
Google will inform you of the truth behind the insinuations or
assertions; and even better, it's free.
BTW, how does your use of Usenet to sell your stuff work for ya?

Also one of this woo-woo believer.... This type of "classification" is
completely contra productive as you always are directed through
scientific mainstream, thus losing the ability to keep your mind open
for new and creative ideas. Skeptics are far more open-minded than woo-
woo believers and I much more prefer agnostic minded people, people
who know that finally they don't know. The people of agnostics who
made history with their "odd scientific ideas" is long, starting with
Albert Einstein, Charles Darwin, Marie Curie, Francis Crick, just to
name a few of them. History shows that lateral thinker are the real
winners, not only in science.
I have looked into each of the 'puzzling artifacts' you brought up.
The list is depressingly common, and does not seem to change when
actual knowledge of them is brought forward.
I am a skeptic. As I said, I looked into the list you presented, quite
a long time ago. because I know how science works, I know how to
separate the bullshit from the good stuff.
As to your 'agnostics who made history', that is exactly like Carl
Sagan's 'they laughed at Galileo, they laughed at Newton, they laughed
at Einstein -- but they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.'
The list is totally made up of discredited Bozo material. Look them up
yourself, if you doubt me. In fact, I wish you would. I don't think
you ought to expect others to do your homework for you.- Hide quoted text -

tom, I am actually starting to do my homework. Please see my previous
post about the Dropa stones.
