Conclusion...

You're a very, very silly person.

Thankyou.

You forgot to mention the "moon", the "tides" and the "cold". And the "stuff". ;)



This is very probably the most attention buzz lightyear has gotten in a long time without paying for it. This will go on for quite some time - we're talking drmabus dimensions here.

Two theories, Little 10 Toes ?
I thought that I was working on the "skin of a huge reptile" idea.
Obviously you have interpreted a second one, could you please enlighten me as to what it is.

And so far we have only agreed that "geology is a field subject", so if some concensus is to be arrived at it, is best done on site.

I am avoiding the "spellcheck" in an attempt to improve my spelling, so you will have to live with it.

:mgduh Buzz, I was talking *to* you, not *about* you. Let's break this down so you can understand. *You* believe that the geologic structures have been created by some sort of " serpent " with wings and hands sheading its skin. Two other members have posted their opinions on how the structure was formed naturally, but you have rejected them.

*I* am too lazy so *I* am avoiding spellcheck for *my* message.

Let's talk about your serpent with winged hands for a few seconds.

You've shown pictures with holes in the ground and claim that your snake made them with bat-like wings. The holes are oddly circular. Wikipedia's entry on bats talks about their wings here. "The finger bones of bats are much more flexible than those of other mammals. One reason is that the cartilage in their fingers lacks calcium and other minerals nearer the tips, increasing their ability to bend without splintering. The cross-section of the finger bone is also flattened instead of circular as is the bone in a human finger, making it even more flexible. The skin on their wing membranes is a lot more elastic and can stretch much more than is usually seen among mammals." Well, if batwings have flat bones, why are the holes circular. You were the one that pointed out how round they are. And how come there aren't any imprints/distortions of the membrane around the holes. Wait, I know, it was this bat that made the impressions.

Let's also take a look at the " sculpture " that the " serpent " made. (msg # 289). You say, "It seems the creature was a budding sculptor . In this formation it created a profile image of the lefthand side of its head . It is designed to be read by sonar as a dolphin would do [...]". Just skipping over the whole, "Prove there is a serpent", "prove the serpent has a abstract sense of art", "prove the serpent did the sculpture", "how could it look at a part of its face", and "what tools did the serpent use". Why would a serpent want to use sonar to see the sculpture? I know, it's because bats can't see. (I'm using bats because your creature has bat like wings)

Nope. Wikipedia mentions here, "By emitting high-pitched sounds and listening to the echoes, microbats locate prey and other nearby objects. This is the process of echolocation, an ability they share with dolphins and whales. [...] Although the eyes of most microbat species are small and poorly developed, their sense of vision is typically very good, especially at long distances, beyond the range of echolocation. It has even been discovered that some species are able to detect ultraviolet light. Their senses of smell and hearing are excellent."

Wikipedia says here about dolphins (since you used them as an example): "Most dolphins have acute eyesight, both in and out of the water, and their sense of hearing is superior to that of humans."

And funny how you mention that the serpent created the picture to be "read" by sonor and yet doesn't sonar and vision work the same way. What looks closer to me with light, won't it still be closer to me with sonar?

Here's something that has been bugging me for a while. You said in msg #70 you chant using a Fibonacci sequence (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ...), but even giving you the first number, OM MANAE PADMAE HUM only equals 1, 1, 2, 2, 1. So, you're either wrong on your chant sequence and go nowhere, or you use OM MANAE PADMAE HUM and go somewhere else.

I have to wonder sometimes which one's the nutter.

You could present 100% irrefutable evidence refuting Buzz's ... theories.....

.........................hypotheses.......

(help me out here, guys.......)

...insane blatherings, and it wouldn't make a whit of difference - he would still be our same buddy Buzz and go off and have another lovely mystical tale for you.

Sit back and have a beer, a wine, a single malt scotch, or even a nice cup of Earl Grey tea and engage Buzz in small-talk, but for chrissakes don't try to reason with it.

Poor Hokulele, to make matters worse the critter has a frill around its kneck like this. It's all too complicated isn't it.

Did you ever take those pics of the Hawaiian sandstone?

Not poor me at all, I just don't bother trying to explain how your creature could not possibly operate in the real world any more. It doesn't matter to me at all what an imaginary animal "really" looks like.

Sorry about the pics, I just haven't been by that way yet. I know I thought we were going to ride there last weekend, but we went to the beach instead. I do have my camera in my purse just in case I am in town. If that happens, I will post them, but again, don't expect much. It really does look like a pile of sand.

It was actually a jape on the movie of that name. Falls a bit flat if you ain't seen it.

Actually I did rewatch the movie after you mentioned it, Athiest.

But when you wrote of getting smashed in the bath tub, I had a "vision".

For one horrible moment I saw an short, overweight, Randi clone slowly getting sloshed on crummy New Zealad beer, while watching the races on tele as he soaked in the bath tub.

"Shudder"

And Belz, the tides are important as many of the sites that I look at are on the waters edge, a low tide at miday is essential.

I was just re-reading "at the mountains of madness" by HPL & could not help but notice similarities between buzz's imaginary critter & the elder race, down to the wierd tracks & fins/wings. Just thought I'd point this out...

Thanks for this info, Ravenwood.

Have been reading H.P. Lovecraft's story with much interest.
In fact it is a bit surreal in how similar it is to my experiences.

Plagiarism, genetic memory, paralell universes ????????????

HPL was a xenophobic nut case who happened to be able to tell an interesting story (albiet his fondness for archaic english can be annoying...)
I brought it up largely to counter the Bravo Sierra you like to toss out. As it has been said, "Put up or shut up"

Buzz, why haven't you answered my Egyptian questions?
Click to expand...

You will have to run them by me again Little 10 Toes.
But if it is the thing about the overseer during the building of the great pyramid of Giza, then we will have to disagree as no one knows exactly who built it.
Or for that matter, what it was bullt for.
