None of the above...
my point is clear
1. I do not think that the employment of ramps can be proved or disproved via proving or disproving what they believed.
I do however think that part of appreciating the immensity of the project, and the possibility of carrying it out, is understanding and appreciation the motivations for doing so.
Your referencing your interpretation of someone else's translation is as unprofessional know as it was 15 years ago.
More so, due to the fact that you have done nothing to rectify the situation or in any way tried tp present your ideas and DATA in a coherent way(it ain't hard, Steve's doing it) makes your reference to claptrap and manure...
the immature uneducated petulant ranting that it is.
