A FINAL OBSERVATION | 2002-04-20

People seem constitutionally incapable of talking about history without getting silly.

For example, there is a Great Historical Mystery that asks why all the Great Civilizations built pyramids. Maybe it was Ancient astronauts who showed them how.

Hundreds of books have told us that these Great Civilizations were nonwhite and built pyramids and that shows everybody's equal.

Let me give you another Great Historical Mystery

A pyramid is a building where the base is wide and it goes to a peak. So why did absolutely none of the Great Civilizations build buildings where the base was in the air and the point was the only thing touching the ground? Did Ancient Astronauts tell them NOT to build pyramids that were upside-down?

By the way, both white and nonwhite Great Civilizations did NOT build upside-down pyramids. That proves everybody is equal. You could get a Major Award out of writing a book about that.
