On the Trail to Atlantis

Bifurcati writes "Scientists claim to have found the lost city of Atlantis, off the coast of Cyprus. They apparently have used sonar to detect the sunken landmass, and even identify geographical features. They seem confident, but all the same, I wouldn't go buying Atlantian artifacts on Ebay just yet."

Well, if its the one in South Florida, people know other people that moved to that subdivision. Everytime you drive by you figure you should visit them someday, but then, the mall is only a few more miles away, and its been a while since you ate, so it's forgotten. Til the next time you drive by.

The TRUTH about Atlantis

[Metapsyborg]

I hate to let the secret out of the bag, but the island of atlantis does not exist on earth. No, not at all. For my PhD dissertation in Archaeology I studied the relationship between the Neandertalensis and Atlantis. Here are my findings: The Neandertals had a larger cranial capacity than humans, but the traditional belief is that this did not significantly affect their intelligence. Despite the fact that their brains had fewer convolutions than the homo sapien brain, their increased brain size more than made up for this differance. The idea that Neandertals were "simple" could not be further from the truth. The Neandertals were a technologically sophisticated race that surpassed even our level of scientific understanding. They came to realize the fundamental principles that underlie the primitive concepts of "space" and "time". Through this understanding they came to a level of existence that surpassed the "base" level that humans and all other living creatures reside on. With understanding came the realization of spiritual forms never before or since fathomed. With their ability to perceive time as a single unit of "everythingness" they could foretell the future, and seeing the bleak, hopeless future of a world inhabited with insignificant insects that could not understand anything deeper than the bottom of their Big Gulp, the Neandertals realized that they must leave until a time when their presence would be needed. Using Quantum engines and Dimensional rifts created through the concentration of psychokinetic energies, the Neandertals uprooted their floating Island-civilization and blasted off into the 4th dimension. This is where they reside until this day, ghostly observers of the universe until such time as their knowledge, powers and abilities are needed to correct the course of a faultering universe.
