I've sometimes wondered if we read into ordinary occurances extraordinary conclusions.

Moog looks down (or up) and wonders why we build a shrine around his campfire or latrine.

Just sayin'

If I had Ten years to 'waste' I'd waste it on going to College and learning everything in the world (PhD) about the Etruscans.

When they Ruled 'italy', Rome was barbaric little village and the 'romans' were ignorant slaves to the Etruscans. And most of rome's knowledge they took from the very advanced Etruscans they once served. But most interesting is that the Etruscans were not native to Italy.

So I wonder .. could the Etruscans have been survivors from Atlantis??

Plato wrote of Atlantis in 360 BC, about the time that Rome was becoming a powerful City-State and the Etruscans were already in decline and close to extinction, all after a very long era (1,000 yrs?) of an advanced reign in 'Italy'.
