Where is Atlantis? Part 4
As I mentioned near the end of Where is Atlantis? Part 3, the accounts I have read about Atlantis describe continent placements that existed 237 million years ago. Yet, people living today claim to have memories of Atlantis. I think technology is close to explaining how something like this could be possible. Humans today can […]
Where is Atlantis? Part 3
Could an ancient, possibly fictitious city be buried under a sand dune in Illinois? Anything is possible, but how likely is this? When there is a perplexing question, science often helps with finding an answer. I will examine what light science can shed on the question. Science has determined that the North American land mass […]
DIY Plywood Lamp

I was walking north on State Street in Belvidere and saw a large, painted sign on the side of a building as I crossed the river. I was immediately intriqued; especially by […]
GSA Lighthouse Auction
The GSA has a lighthouse up for bidding. No bidders yet. The property has a $10,000 minimum and requires a $5,000 bid deposit. What would someone do with this? I went looking around the web for a video I saw about a lighthouse being renovated. I found a host of information, including information about the […]
