Georgia guide Stones
Okay Guys!, nothing like a little controversy to stir things up..
I've recently found myself between projects when My Dear Marji (who tends to lend herself to controversy) suggest that she would like to see my hands full with the Georgia Guide stones. For those of you not familiar, they were erected in 1980 by an anonymous donor on a desolate piece of land just outside of Elberton Georgia. Each of the four monoliths have inscribed the 10 dictations in eight of the worlds predominant languages these languages are: English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian. The dictation(s) read:
Perhaps more pressing will be to transcribe by hand the four glyphs that create the cap stone's perimeter. They are: Egyptian Hieroglyphics Babylonian Cuneiform Classic Greek Sanskrit Here are a few images, Marji and I showing the size of these stones, The mysterious, loitering dark figure who took our picture, the camera's taking a picture of him taking pictures. And two images from the web that show the configuration of the stones and of the mysterious cube that was found earlier this year in a purpose cut notch of the English panel. (to be included) |

Right, so whose volunteering to be amongst the select 6,500,000,000 required to be eliminated by the dictators of these dictations
I seen some daft ideas in my time but really .... |

Overall, I agree!
Just don't know or understand where 500,000,000 comes in. Was way past that when stones were erected. Will have to research a little deeper... JoeG

Jagolden , think that number is 500 million, the current population is somewhere between 7-8 billion but that's only half of the weird, adjacent to the structure is a slab approximately 5 x 10 feet that list all of the stone sizes and weights, the builders, quarry, languages, etc. with a buried time capsule to be opened (?)
for more information, wiki = "Georgia Guide Stones" |

There is speculation that the Guide Stones are intended for survivors of a Nuclear Holocaust.
In that scenario, there might be less than 500,000,000 people left in the world. See: Georgia Guidestones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |

Ah yes, how quickly one forgets about the nuclear winter, we won't need to volunteer.
There once was a song "We'll all fry together when we fry" thus enabling the cockroaches to inherit the Earth. It's still the most likely outcome though. Throughout history empires have passed away with no more than a whimper. The Roman army never won a victory after CE (AD) 451 and could not affect the outcome. Can anyone imagine the American military not cracking the launch codes when their turn comes. Or am I just being too optimistic. |
