About the References

Geide (youstupidrelativists.com), Dr Bartlet (www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-QA2rkpBSY), and Klaus Dona (www.youtube.com/watch?v=XmMwo1Xzgus) are the easiest to check out.  Geide's chapters on population take about 30 minutes altogether.  Al and Klaus will each require about an hour.

Fred Hoyle's books are short and can be read in about 2-3 hrs each if you read in excess of 300wpm.  I found them on the city's public library consortium and posted a request.

A must read is The Cycle of Cosmic Catastrophes and Civilization One.  The first is one of the best scientific treatments of geology in publication.  The second is just about as good.  Both render a fairly solid foundation for the argument we--the current specie of man--lived during and before the last ice age, and that during that period man attained a fairly complex civilization.


The others have useful information, but a lot more gleaning is necessary.  There is a lot of speculation instead of real science in the other books, but enough data to get one thinking.  And that is the most important part.  I am not interested in speculation, sensationalism, or Chicken Little apocalypticism.  Nor am I interested in green or gray aliens involved in man's past, simply for the reasons outlined in Space Travel (Bova & Lewis).  The only way we can grasp how BIG our galaxy is, is with mathematics.  Just as surely as Bartlett's simple equations show we are in deep trouble, simple equations also show that space travel by any method of applied physics we can come up with precludes celestial Visitors.
