On the Tube

Travel to Egypt and join a team of archaeologists who have uncovered what evidence reveals is the lost fourth pyramid of Giza.
Radjedef, son of the great Khufu, would stamp his supremacy by erecting the highest pyramid ever built, towering some 60 feet above Khufu's Great Pyramid of Giza. However, King Djedefre's pyramid was forgotten and almost buried beneath the encroaching desert sands and its significance to the three great pyramids was lost.
State-of-the-art CGI demonstrates how all four pyramids were connected. Interwoven through the exciting finds of this new excavation is the story of the most powerful, prolific, and arguably, the most cruel and debauched of all Egypt's dynasties.
Playing on the History channel this coming Monday. I hope it's gonna be good.

I'll record this one so if anyone wants it just sing out.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

I'd like it too, Min, but only if you're recording it on to something emailable - I don't want you paying postage to England.

OK, gang, I've got it. I just edited it and it is now being copied.

It's in two parts because you may need an intermission from the rampant speculation. There is a brief part about tools and cutting through granite which....well....I hope that I'm not the only one who was unconvinced!

This program will not do Zahi Hawass's reputation any good at all.

So far I've got Michelle, Dannan and Ish looking for it. Ish, I use pando to send these out. It will come with instructions on how to download but it is an e-mail attachment....or in this case 2 attachments.


I'll probably get it out sometime tomorrow.

Thank you, Min. I already have Pando, so I'll forward to receiving it the attachments.

There was a good prog on last night here about the crystal skulls. They showed that they'd been cut using a technique that wasn't invented until the 19th century.

So I thought - great, that's that sorted then. Open and shut case.

But no ... the New Agers who owned these skulls then came back and said "well, these skulls were made in Atlantis anyway, where they had highly developed technology including lasers for cutting..."

and I thought, Jeez ...... :?

I think the big clue was in said programme being on Channel 5 - serving the British public documentaries on sharks and nazis since 1995 (or whenever the fuck it started up).

Part I is on its way.

Part II is on its way.
