It does not surprise me that you did not understand the post.
I am however aware you (you poor sod) do not have the foggiest clue about physics.

Digging any canal does not accomplish the RISE from base to plateau height, which is necessary to make water level equate to pyramid level RISE of 40+metres.
They could dig to "China" and they would be going the WRONG way! Just like you!

Have you read the other things Herodotus wrote that is utterly crazy ?
But with respect to him more sensible than your BS!

Petrie's interesting litle channel would barely be a roadside drain, given its dimensions.

Not anything like the required super structure that you conjure in fantasy!

No. You have "steps" can I remind you: (81' 3") so even if your fantasy was anything less than psychotic inane delusion then anything above the first pull would need multiple pulls. More water!

BUT as Steve Clayton claims, they had 'magic water' that ran up hill from a nearby creek it went uphill to the plateau.
So I guess anything is "possible" for you nutters?

As an amateur you have some understanding of infrared tech.

Pity you are terminally obsessively INSANE!

Just thank all that is (might be) holy, that the nurses deliver your meds and you have somewhere to sleep!

Please carry on discussion with Steve, it is hilarious!


Cheers

PS Did you note poster Manu's exquisite post about the attestation of the hieroglyphic word for "ramp"?
iow do I need to link it or PM it to you?

btw How are you going with finding the glyph s for "incline plane technology" that you endorse and say i in the holy words of the unknown un-evidenced race you claim built the great pyramids?
