Barbara Bubbles; Hee hee ;-) Ta. Got any debunking sites too? Ever seen any of the Sitchen/Sitchin ( both spellings get results in Google. He wrote "The 12th Planet" in which he gives "proof" of ancient astronauts based on his readings of Sumarian; which he understands because he "knows" Akkadian and modern Hebrew) or Robert Temple's "The Sirius Mystery" who says much the same thing except he "proves" the ancient speakers of the Egyptian, Greek, Hebrew, and Dogon languages had a shared extra terrestrial experience? Temple is truly a hoot! In one passage he goes on about the ancient Egyptian word for "Sphinx" and its "connections" to the above languages not realising that in the dictionary he uses "sphinx" is not the meaning of the word, but the citation naming the French egyptology magazine the lexicographer cribed the definition from!
