Hey, I'm wondering if you have read this Cycle book? Is it anything like Velikovsky? Been a long time since I read V. But I have often thought there was some big cosmic event that wiped out civilization. Maybe several of them, in the last several tens of thousands of years.

Actually, it’s something like Dr. V, because of the citation of (but not specifically reliance upon) possible folkloric references to the impact events the authors and others (including the first guy to find evidence and begin to grasp its significance; he’s from Michigan, but he and one of the authors parted ways) reconstructed from empirical data. Definitely worth reading, I predict you *will* enjoy it and be fascinated by it.

I read it, you’ll like it.
