Flame Suit ON!! Is that simply a flame retardant suit - or an insulated high-temperature flame resistant survival suit?

I note that after the Pope gave the OK to coffee, no more giant skeletons were found in Sicily, proving that coffee really does stunt your growth.

Way cool.
I always found it unbeliveable that humans that are genetically like us could exist for hundres of thousands to millions of years and that no civilization would arise, no stone cities were built, no intellectual accomplishments comparable to our's were achieved, and that the expansion of the human population is monotonic.
I suspect that a combination of science-establishment orthodoxy and an unwillingness to let people contemplate the possiblity of massive population crashes and failures of civilizations keeps these topics out of the light.

Here is a dilly.
In 1567 British sea captain John Hawkins sailed from Africa with a load of slaves. Most of his ships were destroyed at Vera Cruz, Mexico.
Some of the survivors decided to walk out in an attempt to escape the Spanish. One man named DAVID INGRAM was put out at the River Panuco, Mexico, walked overland and was picked up eleven months later by the French ship GARGARINE, of the coast of NOVA SCOTIA.
With no maps how did he travel three thousand miles overland in just eleven months. He later met and told Capt John Hawkins of his adventures.
What is interesting is he claimed to have seen ELEPHANTS in the interior of North America.

[Visiting an ancient battlefield.]
Gen. George S. Patton Jr.: The Carthaginians defending the city were attacked by three Roman legions. The Carthaginians were proud and brave but they couldn't hold. They were massacred. Arab women stripped them of their tunics and their swords and lances. The soldiers lay naked in the sun. Two thousand years ago. I was here.

I've heard of the Iraqi batteries and the Grecian computer but what museum do I visit to see the 30ft human skeletons the carvings of dinosaurs and the geometric steel objects found in coal seams?

You'd think with all these giant skeletons being found in the 17th and 18th centuries there would be at least one laying around that you could go observe -- like the lone Rosetta stone -- or find a picture of on the Internet. Darn shame that they all were inadvertently lost or destroyed. Good thing the lore remains as proof.

Before Adam, according to the Manual,
the earth was "void and without form."
We don't have much clue what it was
BEFORE
it was "void and without form."
Sounds like GOD ALMIGHTY may have mushed things all up and started over many times.

Being a fan of this kind of stuff, a lot was familiar but some were not. Gotta be some hoaxes in there but scientists and museums have been known to ignore things that don't fit current hypothesis.
I've always wondered if dating items by their depth in geologic strata is not completely false. Don't forget that the earth's mantle/crust is comparatively thin. If there were shifts in the earth's axis, the oceans would leave their beds and lay tons of sediment as it sloshed about. Land would fold and crumple up like tissue paper. Plate tectonics can't account for all the fossilized fish found high in the mountains or in shoals, as they have been in the UK.
Lots of stuff can be better answered by looking into catastrophism instead of the current accretion theory that says that the earth has been stable these millions of years.
And whereinL did all that oil come from? Does ANYBODY still believe it comes from buried dinosaurs?

AD 1927 (25 Jan) In Nevada, a shoe sole that was fossilized in Triassic limestone was found, placing man back in the time of the giant reptiles.AD 1927 (26 Jan) Ancient writing discovered in the same area as the shoe sole is partially deciphered. The unknown author apparently claims to have scored four touchdowns in one game.

I sorta "collect" anomalies, so this will be a lot of fun to look at tomorrow when I have time.
