Hey FrankC,

Aren't perspectives revealing AND personal at the same time??

I have never NOT conceded when some issue has been
proven beyond a shadow of a doubt to have another explanation. However, unfortunately, there are two sides to every story, and unless it stands up as a case in the courts, one can chose to believe whomever one relates to....or resounds with.
I can see THROUGH the writers/artists "eye" on this one...and the explanation is a rather benign one. However, I do not denigrate the author for painting his canvas rather large on this one. Like a poor copy of one of the Master's originals, he is offering himself up to be found out.

You then added:
"I would also admonish her for appearing to accept this garbage for months with zero critical thought and waiting for others to direct her to easily found facts. Why? Because she prefers the esoteric explanation."

Now that's YOUR explanation!
Let me clarify MY position!
I read reams of information, some I file away for a rainy day, others I pursue, while yet others can go to the Dustbin of History without me losing any sleep.
IF there was anything realistic or important about these glyphs, then Egyptian historians would get their hands on them, and a decent explanation would be had by all sooner or later.
So I waited.
So I shared.
"Esoteric" is a VERY BIG WORD.

"Like door to door salesmen there is only one ending, buy their product or order them off your property.'

I'm not selling anything......merely bringing attention to unusual items.
If you've read any of my posts on the "other" board, you would have read that I often dump unsubstantiated material on bbs' to have others WHO ARE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE THAN I dispute, correct, agree with or disparage anything I've ever offered.
It is the spice of life and breaks up the monotony of some of the mental laxity and calcification found everywhere these days.
