And not one of them believe the pyramids are older than they appear or even as old as scientific testing suggests. Not one of them believe they were seed vaults or that Vyse could commit fraud. Not one of them is likely to ever change his opinion about ramps, tombs, superstition, or the legitimacy of trying to understand the pyramid builders in terms of later Egyptians.
It might require a new generation of Egyptologists to even get scientific testing done and a third generation to accept the results. Every year more money will disappear into tombs and ramps and looking for gold.

Man fears the pyramid, time fears man.
