read a book yers ago 'gods of the new millenium' where the author had 'evidence' that aliens created the pyramids, and visited earth... proof in ezekiel, and mayan stone carvings etc.. interesting read. the author then said his book was a load of rubbish some years later and he didnt know what he was thinking! ha ha...

I reckon if the moon was like earth we would see agricultural patterns from earth, with primitive telescopes. its about the size of australia and how ever far away... I think that a small city lit up would be visible at night!

Interesting what you say about that author Liam, I keep wondering if Uri Geller will 'come clean' in his old age. Will he publish a book about how it was all a con? Or will he go to his grave claiming that he can read minds and bend spoons?

Sounds like Von Daniken http://www.daniken.com/e/index.html to me Liam, but in all honesty I think the man is perhaps a bit bonkers? ;)
And yes if anyone was, or indeed had lived on the moon we would have known about it for some time now. :)

I remember reading "our mysterious spaceship the moon" a number of years back it was a good read if a little fanciful

I recall that one Nemesis, I started reading it on board a ship bound for the Channel Islands, possibly thirty years ago now, I nodded of to sleep and when I woke, it had gone.
The book not the ship. ;)
Very spooky. :shock:

That is just typical Pandora, story of my life no less. :?

It was utter rubbish mind, cleverly written in a very Chriton like style but still utter rubbish. ;)
