Sunken City Found Off Of India
Raindeer writes "A city only known from old myths about seven pagodas and thought by Western scientists not have existed, was found off the coast of India. The myths speak of six temples submerged beneath the waves with the seventh temple still standing on the seashore. The myths also state that a large city once stood here which was so beautiful the gods became jealous and sent a flood that swallowed it up entirely in a single day. " With the purported discovery of a city off of Cuba, as well as the the finding of Herakleion underwater archaeology is doing well.

What is it with the BBC (and other news organizations) stories where every sentence is a paragraph by itself? Is this some rule of journalism I'm not familiar with? Seems rather jarring.
It hurts when I pee.
For those with questions, I suggest reading, "There May be a God, but no Sane Person Cares."
IANA historian, but didn't the Indus valley civilization itself only come into existence around 2500BC? For such a monumental city to have existed in 3000BC would really be remarkable.

Robert Ballard who found the wreck of the Titanic. According to the article he is searching the Black Sea "where four 1,500-year-old wooden ships were found two years ago. He's looking for evidence of a great flood, possibly linked to the story of Noah's ark"

Acutally, a popular belief now is that Atlantis was actually a city from the Minoan civilization. I forget the name of the city and island. I think it may have been there capital, Minoa. The island is still around is actually a dormant volcano in the shape of a caldera. Infact the Volcano not only wiped out the population of the island, it also wiped out most of the Minoan empire due to the resulting tidal waves. This island is very similary shaped to the myths of Atlantis. I am sure you can do a google search for it and find more info on it.

Justice Byron White s Definition: no erect penises, no intercourse, no oral or anal sodomy. For White, no erections and no insertions equaled no obscenity.
Brennan s Definition, The Limp Dick Test: no erections. He was willing to accept penetration as long as the pictures passed what his clerks referred to as the limp dick standard. Oral sex was tolerable if there was no erection.
Stewart s Definition, The Casablanca Test: . . . I know it when I see it. [Stewart] had seen in during World War II, when he served as a Navy lieutenant. In Casablanca, as watch officer for his ship, he had seen his men bring back locally produced pornography. He knew the difference between that hardest of hard core and much of what came to the Court. He called it his Casablanca Test .
