Now, with that said, internos, if you are talking about a different picture, then my bad. However, I disagree that there is anything special about this outcrop. I DO believe that there may have been life on mars at one point, or that mars may be able to sustain life, but so far, the fact is that there is no solid evidence supporting this. Sure, there is speculation on formations and faces on mars and yadayada but its all SPECULATION. Until the rover sends back a picture of a fossil that was once a living creature, I'm not gonna believe it. I do appreciate you respecting my opinion though and I respect yours.

And have you ever read the book I suggested? Fingerprints of the Gods? Its an amazingly good read. I suggest it to all that are interested in where mankind really could have come from.

I was just a bit taken back that he was believing everything Richard Hoagland said without any research to the contrary. Because there's alot of scientific evidence stacked against Hoagland. Some people are dangerous because they purposly spread disinformation, knowing that they have a large audience listening to them. And THAT is what I'm against.

At what point do all you Hoagland haters have to get to, before you grasp the point that everything he has said about Mars from the fossil destroyed by one of the rovers to the fact that there is liquid water on Mars has come to fruition? Practically everything he has presented evidence for has recently been confirmed by NASA. From liquid water to the presence of methane! (and these are only the small things that he's presented evidence of) Most of these things he presented evidence for AT LEAST 10 YEARS in advance of NASA's confirmation.
Don't know about you, but anyone with a track record that is as close to 100% as his has been I wouldn't be so quick to ridicule.
Unless, of course, I were an agent of the dark side and my only purpose was to cast doubt on someone that has had more hits than the Billboard Top 40.
