For the Pyramids of the Gizah plateau, it had always been 'assumed' the blocks were of carved stone. I say this is not the case. It’s simply an example of early masonry.
Cement. If you can frame it, you can pour it -- including stacked, multi-ton blocks. They take on the characteristics of the quarried stone, simply because they have all the characteristics of the stone that was quarried and ground up to provide the base for the cement.
Sorry about not putting that in my above post. It's really just a theory, but, since it uses hard and learned facts, it sure beats the hell out of the 'Stargate' mentality that insists it was all done by ‘aliens’.
The implications Charles appears to be driving toward is that humans (that includes you and me) are too stupid to evolve (technologically) to what we are today without some sort of alien, or divine, intervention (too much FoxTV on his brain). Attributing science fiction stories to support bogus claims results in a science fiction outlook on the world, so he probably can't help himself.
