I'm spoiling for a fight.

Where did cladking go? I didn't even start with his water theory and fluid dynamics. :sigh: Good thing I have cable.

I pop in and out at about 30 different sites in between work, research, and breaks.

Don't get me started with the pyramids.

Water was caught at 80' and channeled to the queen's chamber from which it was distributed through canals to two large counterweights on the north and west sides. Stones were lifted on the east and south sides. The water was collected at the pyramid base and channeled to two counterweight systems on the cliff face. The western was single large counterweight which operated while the pyramid was still small to lift stones from the quarry righht up onto the top. The eastern cliff face counterweight had a back up and these both pulled stone up from the Sphinx Quarry to the main lifter on the east side of G1. Manetho said the stones moved up to the pyramid 300' at a time and 300' is exactly the lenght of the counterweight run down the 225' cliff face. You can see one of these runs in the center opf this photo;
