Oh Hans, you can't dispute. One4all gained this knowledge from beings in a shiny spacecraft that CHOSE him / her to share this knowledge - they are clearly more evolved than us mere sheeple......

Atlantis is not real, it was a fictional story.
Because you say so. How academic and boring.

Why is it that I read a lot of articleson a subject,which takes weeks of reading, then a guy comes out and makes a video about it and is pretty much close to being accurate. The video, one hour or so, the reading thirty hours or more of articles. Why didn't I just wait for the video, I researched this about six years ago and it appears not much has changed about it. I spent months reading research about the ancient civilizations in Europe , the Mediteranian and African areas. Not so much on China or the other coast.

Did you have anything to add about how the sand that comprises the dessert was classified and then placed there...MMMmmm…..there is only one right answer...can you handle that kind of pressure without melting down into a puddle of wax.
Orbital precession greatly influences North African climate because it controls the strength and northward penetration of the monsoonal rains (Kutzbach, 1981; Liu et al., 2006). Strengthening summer-season solar radiation causes the North African landmass to heat up relative to the adjacent Atlantic Ocean due the lower thermal inertia of the land surface relative to the upper ocean mixed layer. The warmer land mass creates a broad low pressure zone, driving the inflow of moist air from the tropical Atlantic. The resulting summer monsoonal rains nourish the landscape. During winter, the land cools relative to the ocean and the winds reverse (one definition of a monsoon), returning dry conditions across North Africa. Since precession controls summer insolation, it effectively controls the amount and northward penetration of the monsoonal rains into North Africa. Simple atmosphere-only climate models have shown that a 7% increase in summer radiation, similar to what occurred during the AHP, results in at least a 17% increase in African monsoonal rainfall, and up to 50% if ocean feedbacks are included (Kutzbach and Liu, 1997).
The African Humid Period exemplifies the dramatic climate transitions that our planet experiences as a result of subtle changes in the Earth's orbit. The "greening" of the Sahara not only represents a remarkable transformation of the hydrologic cycle, but evidence that gradual climate forcing can result in rapid climate responses. The wealth of North African paleoclimate and archeological data highlights the fundamental importance of water availability on sustainability and human populations, and the central role of climate in shaping major events in cultural development leading to the rise of complex, urban cultures (deMenocal, 2001; Kuper and Kröpelin, 2006).

That's the way the Internet works. It monitors what you're clicking on and for how long, then it feeds it back to you though whatever channels it has so you'll click more and buy what they want you to buy. It's both clever and insidious. It's the recycling of interests and ideas that drive people nuts.

Delete your cookies and the internet forgets that you were looking for...um...lawn mower parts. Yeah, that's it lawn mower parts.

You are covering up the truth by referring to old history...and intentionally ignoring new history because it isn't published in peer approved papers yet...that is covering up the truth...anyone can look at a topo map of Africa and see how the sand was washed upon the land....it isn't even open for interpretation its clearly obvious.
