Yes, I think that's right. Weirdness is no bad thing, it certainly keeps us entertained, but you can't usually build a proper theory on it. Because, as has been said on here quite often in recent months, any theory sooner or later has to be tested and then re-evaluated. That's the problem with the more off-the-wall ideas, they don't usually stand up to proper scrutiny.

There are plenty of people writing books about Atlantis and lizards still, I assume, or has the internet done away with the need to publish these sorts of things now that you can just post it for free on-line somewhere?
