I have an open mind. I'll even list to your ideas about Atlantis.

I learn a lot on the periphery of your Atlantis posts, but Plato was just being Plato with his technique of burying dialogues within sets of narratives and having them told to us by unquestionable sources. His story of Atlantis (in 'Timaeus' and 'Critas,' where the politically opposite states of Athens and Atlantis are examined - both founded by Gods and settled by their descendants) is beyond the reach of the most reliable Egyptian records. And oral tradition is notoriously unreliable.

In Plato's 'Symposium,' humans were originally a race of Siamese twins, but I can't find anybody out there looking for Siamese twins in the fossil record.

"I learn a lot on the periphery of your Atlantis posts."

I don't recall that Oppenheimer mentions Atlantis at all in his books. It was Dr Robert Schoch, citing Oppenheimer's work, who does in his book, Voyages Of The Pyramid Builders.
