This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

From what i have learned the technology to build the pyramids was actuall extremely low tech, and i dont mean slaves and chisles, i mean strings, honey, and tuning forks for the cutting of stone. For transportation they used vibrations to move the stone along magnetic lines in the earth.

Its not ancient high tech, its simply forgotten or suppressed low tech.

Never heard the vibration thing. That's pretty sick. I have heard of animal fat though.

Huh. I though they used basic stone-working tools and the simple machines we learn about in elementary school -- just at a larger scale.

Weird.

Right, like people couldn't figure out how to float shit down river on a raft or roll it on some logs and instead had to send out wizards to find leylines...
