3. Yes, and I foolishly...
Edited on Wed Aug-31-05 02:37 PM by onager
...jumped into a Bleating Room thread on "Ancient Flying Machines" where this is being proven over and over. Did you know that THE TRUTH about ancient alien flying machines in Egypt is being suppressed by archeologists because of "Egyptian ego?"

:rofl:

I'll give you an example of how bad it is (one I might use in that thread, just to piss off the W**-W**'s.)

When I was in Egypt, a well-educated Egyptian who moonlights as a tour guide told me that Americans...and ONLY Americans...are ALWAYS the people who ask him about aliens building the Giza Pyramids. I'm sure Europe must have a few idiots who also believe it, but they must be smart enough to keep their mouths shut.

He said he always tried to patiently explain why this was nonsense: there was an 800-year learning curve between the first pyramid at Sakkara, the ones at Dashur, and finally Giza, etc.

And IT DID NOT MATTER! Even after hearing all that, they still expected him to admit that aliens built the Giza pyramids, and there was the Usual Bizarre Conspiracy to hide THE TRUTH!

Good grief. Like it wasn't bad enough, with G.W. F'ing Bush making me ashamed to be an American...
