::: Sci-Fi Channel, Quest for Atlantis

Greg Little and William Donato had the opportunity to check out the Cay Sal anomaly site on their recent trip to Bimini with the Sci-Fi channel who were filming a documentary 'Quest for Atlantis'.  I appreciate their interest in the satellite image and the reports of what they found at the site were very interesting although the Sci-Fi channel did not include any mention of the SD site or the numerous satellite image anomalies of the Bahamas area.  It should be noted there will be another expedition to the Cypress wall site on June 28, 2006.  It should also be stated, this site doesn't even resemble Plato's description of Atlantis (it's not circular, more rectangular), and many are wondering just what all the fuss is about??  It leaves more than a few of us scratching our heads as to why so much emphasis is placed on incredible claims of Atlantis when there are obviously many sites that deserve more notice and publicity, including the Bosnian pyramid site and the megalithic wall site in France near Rennes-le-Chateau that continues to remain in the dark, incognito.

"We had exact satellite coordinates for "the grid," so, with some careful calculations, Captain Scott found the site quickly. Greg dropped his underwater camera over the side, and we trolled,
everyone trying to view the little monitor to see images of the bottom. Sea grass and sand were all we saw. The sea grass patches were uniform, occurring in amazingly repetitive patterns, as the satellite images had indicated, but no stones were seen. There may be stones under the grass, but it would have cost too much money and time to find them. The boat's sonar indicated nothing noteworthy.
We decided to sail on to the Anguilla Cays..."

Could the gridded area be some type of agricultural sign, modern dump site or a concealed ancient city?  Perhaps someone in the future can pickup where the Sci-Fi channel left off so we can get some valid answers. 

Many thanks to R.J. Archer and his MEGA blog attempts to shed light on the Cuba image anomalies.

Seen from above the Aden Crater has all the Features that Plato used, to describe a Volcano-Kingdom on an Earthquake prone to tectonic faultline-shearing. The one proof that Plato was NOT reffering to Atlantis as an Island was the mention that the Central-LOW Mountain, was connected to the MAIN-LAND, by an Isthmus.

Aden Crater HAS a subsided Crater, with a central low mountain connected to the mainland by an isthmus, what more proof does one need for thew location of "Atlantis-City"?! sincerely, A.Muster/B.VanBemmelen Delft Holland.

See? one makes the discovery of a lifetime: Historical"Atlantis" and nothing happens. . .

in a Comical Movie of the Thirties, One 'russian-official' from the"Ninotska"Film shouted in the Hotelcorridors: "The Service in this Hotel is abominable" See?. nothing happened!
If I were to say that "Jc= Jesus Christ was actually Julius Caesar and Mohammed was the East-Roman Emperor HERAKLIOS" nothing happens either.

Atlantis in America is a mistake by the "seasoned" Pilot-Major Colombus, he may have had a map of "Atlantis" but he held it with the South on top and thus "upside Down"! All Arabic maps had as a holy(?)"tradition"South-on-top-maps

This gentlemen means that"Columbus-Atlantis"was in Spain or Greece!
at lateral alignment, would ye not say?

The trouble with Atlantis location is that at the first World Conference on Melos in Greece ( 2005.)the 55 participating "Atlantologists"were compelled to subscribe to Plato's original Text as genuine.
and thus based their (55 wild theories)on a traditional, but dogmaticly-corrupted text.

These 55 Oceanografists fell unwittingly, victim, in the non-historian's common-oversight's TRAP. Imagine that in the Mythical Film view about "Atlantis"; asynchronisms crept, like in "Troy" & "The Argonauts", or "Jezus-temptation" , would the educated viewer,take it for granted, that everyone is dressed as Bysantine Romans?

Yet only one commentor: Jaimie Manusecovich from Brazil, dared to remark that"Atlantis"remsembled the position of Israel in 1000 bc.

Whilst Atlantis clearly was a Punic decapolis dating from 900 bc!
( and in israel existed an ancient Punic decapolis)

Amateur historians Muster & VanBemmelen from the Polly Delft in Holland, retraced Plato's basic storyline in a makeshift-TimelineChart which ,as Timelines go, once assembled yielded-up forgotten thus publicly "unknown" facts. Such as Earth's Zodiac- axis shift in: 855 bc unknown to all present-day historians!

Alas, the Science magazines and TV-Channels seeking the Myth not the Truth, shunned their"Article-Pitching" of Atlantis-in-ADEN.

Any Vulcanologist in "Melos"(=not invited!) could have told that Atlantis was a Volcano-Kingdom/Realm, that sunk in Aden-Harbour. The features at the caldeira-bottom of ancient "Atlantis" can be traced by Satelite.( please save one for me since"Google-Earth"ignored this harbor underwater-scene!)

The Jemenites are not amused: in their haste to severe political ties with Britains"Aden-Protectorat
they cellebrated independance by two civil wars over the spoils and now lack the funds to create an Atlantis-Hype, whilst the "ruins of the "Golden"palaces shimmer in the murky waterfront! at "Ras-Aden-Crater".

The "Melos"-Conference in 2005 was cleverly devised to confront the "Atlantologists" with non-traditional-views that will be aired, in the 2nd"Conference in 2008!

Meanwhile awaiting recognition in 2008, the 2 discoverers of historical "Atlantis in Aden" are virtually "winged"into the madhouse

And in"Melos-2";the Gods will have a hearty laugh, about the really stupid mistakes that were propagated by the academic "profesionalists" back in 2005! ( Collina-Gerard /France and "Georgeos"/Brazil have already been found-out!)

Sincerely, from Muster/VanBemmelen at the Polly-Delft>Holland,dd Dec 1, 2006. ( Sic transit gloria mundis.0
