Well, if you dont hold them pointy end down then the flow of energy is reversed...

[ValerieUSA]

How energetic are your rocks today?

[blam]

What? (I'm still digging out from the hurricane mess)

[Bernard Marx]

Could be, but what about the ones with points on both ends?

[JudyB1938]

I was afraid of that. I was deeply worried about you. So glad you're okay, even if you DO have a bunch of hard work ahead of you!

I got the following in my email today. Kinda reminds me of you. :0)

Good motto to live by ....

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand - strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!"

Depends on the email. ;')

George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent

Well, in my younger days. I'm too old for that kind of stuff anymore. In fact, I had my last 'drink' 12-04-89...see what I mean.

...the ancient Egyptian god "Anubis", the Judge of the Dead !

Anubis was the Keeper of the Scales; Osiris was the Judge (and King) of the dead.

Ancient Wisdom Foundation

Deciphering the Gosford Glyphs. In the Australian bush, two hours north of Sydney, carved into the high stone walls of a hidden, narrow passageway, there are what appear to be ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Discovered fifty years ago by chance, by a hiker, they were summarily dismissed by Egyptologists and archeologists as forgeries or fakes.

On a recent trip to Sydney, John Anthony West went to look at these carvings and was not at all certain that they were or could be fakes. He made photos and drawings of the glyphs, available to Edmund Meltzer, a PhD Egyptologist, and well known expert on hieroglyphics. Without access to the actual site, on the basis of the information available, a preliminary study by Meltzer could not categorically confirm an ancient Egyptian origin for the glyphs. But he was able to decipher numerous genuine Egyptian phrases and sentences. For various reasons Meltzer feels it unlikely that the inscriptions are modern inventions.

Meanwhile, on the basis of the available photos, Robert Schoch noted that the glyphs are often covered with lichens and he suggested that the lichens could be carbon dated which in turn could help to confirm or refute an ancient date for the inscriptions. A colleague of Schoch's is the world's leading expert in the study of lichens.

Both Schoch and Meltzer feel strongly that the site merits further detailed study. Accordingly an AWF initiative is therefore in place to finance a one week trip to Australia to examine all aspects of the inscriptions in situ.

If it were proved that ancient Egyptians had actually visited Australia and had carved these inscriptions, it would be a dramatic scholarly discovery that would undermine the foundations of current archeological anti-diffusionist beliefs.

Hi

I identified the marking that affected you instantly I saw it. It is the deshret crown of lower egypt dating back to the Narmer Palette. This is amazing and further proof that the ancient egyptians visited Australia.

Do you agree with me as to it being the crown?

Thanks for the atricle, it was very interesting.

The Gosford Glyphs

David Coltheart visits the “Kariong Egyptoid” site near Sydney, Australia

Neil Martin himself found the man responsible. “In 1984 1 was in the area helping to put out a fire”, he told me. “As I came around the base of the hill, I could hear a noise like someone chipping stone. I walked over to the cleft and found an old Yugoslavian man, chipping the stone with a Sidchrome cold chisel. Because this was national park property, I confiscated the chisel and the man left. Because he was mentally handicapped, we took no further action, but I later gave the chisel to the local historical society. We never saw the old man again.”
