People in magic sky cities? WTF is that supposed to mean? Now you are just putting words in my mouth!

Also, you would be surprised at how many people do not understand the relationship between water and culture, coastal communities, etc., and therefore flood stories.
What the hell would you know of the professional community? There is only one perspective, the one which evidence supports. Nothing else matters. That's how science works.

Pedra Furada....lol... You don't even know how complex the matters are you are speaking about. You're getting strung along in a bitch-fest put on by the French. The funny thing is, I used to live an hour away from potentially the oldest dig in NA. Do you have any clue what 50kya strata looks like?
