2fast-
I took a year of Psychology in high school, and the very well endowed teacher (God she looked good) was also a buff on Egyptian history. One day someone mentioned how impossible it would be to build the pyramids without "outside" help, and she went nuts. She went on a 20 minute rant about how many pyramids were built that failed. She pointed out that the relics that still stand today were just the tip of the iceberg. There were thousands of pyramids, and observatories for the stars, etc. that came and went first. She said she hated it when people acted like the few that still exist were the only ones, and that those folks either had help or got real lucky. She really went off. Makes sense to me. If an outsider showed up and saw an aircraft carrier, they would be fools to think that was mans first attempt at a boat.

BTW, I've been inside the big pyramid at Cheops (Cairo). It was exciting climbing up the long, narrow shafts. Got to the main chamber, and you know what I saw? Nothing. The damn thing had been robbed several thousand years ago. Just a few tourists and some rocks. Still kinda neat, though (Tut's tomb was much more impressive).

Take care,
-Chris
