No, we are not kin to my knowledge... but maybe you should check with my Dad, who may have been a bit of a wild lad in his day according to some accounts. Scott and I were merely brothers in arms, albeit briefly, on the Hall of Ma'at some years ago, which is where I fisrt encountered his ideas. But I do need to confess to some bias, as Scott is a fellow countryman, hailing from Scotland, like Graham Hancock himself.
Scotland - as you no doubt know - has given the world countless inventions, ideas and innovations, and it's nice to see Scott and Graham carrying on this great tradition. Now, if only our footballers were as good... :-)
Down these last few years, there have been two alternative thinkers on these threads whose work and intellectual efforts, in different ways, I have always found fascinating to read and increasingly compelling. One is Scott and the other is Cladking.
I think what Scott has finally given us in his RVT is a unified theory of Giza which fits the evidence far more convincingly than the increasingly threadbare "tombs theory". I think - deep down - that even you know he's onto something (but no need to admit it here!)
As for coming to his defence, I wasn't really so much concerned with that as chiding Archae for spoiling what was otherwise a good line of interrogation on his part thus far... and all without wittering on about 200 ton blocks.
I think I should admit at this point, too, that I haven't bought the book yet. Sorry Scott... but true to the Scottish stereotype I am notoroiusly stingy and probably won't get hold of it till I get it second hand on Amazon... *blushes*
