Well, that's what we do. We do that wherever. But, you know, look at Martin Sweterman. He's written this. He's an academic from Edinburgh University. He's worked with Graham in the past. He comes to and speaks at our conferences.
And he's written this paper, he's written several papers now, about a calendar system, you know, encoded on Pillar 43 at Gobekli Tepe, and also actually at Karahan Tepe in the Pillar Shrine, you know, the way, like what's called a loony solar calendar, where you're kind of like counting certain aspects of it to like build up this calendar.

And he got that peer-reviewed and published in an academic journal. Eventually, it took him like two or three years to get it through. And now that went ballistic. That went all over the internet. It caused this sensation, really frustrated a lot of the academics and archaeologists who said, well, we weren't consulted. We don't agree with that.

And so he managed to get one through about the astronomy and astrology, even astrological symbols and calendars.

at gobekli tepe and karahatepe so in a way that's opened the door for other people to now write about that but since then the archaeologists have said no none of that is true there's no astronomy they weren't looking at the skies since that came out a few months ago and so so hang on a sec but it's been published we've made this discovery that yeah here's my sweatman here's our conference our megalithomania conference

And so, yeah, so that's my frustration with the whole kind of debate. And I just think everyone needs to be a bit nicer to each other. It's as simple as that. And actually listen to each other. Because there's no need. I mean, the ideas are flowing. You know, if we're a kind of advanced civilization, which we claim to be, we should be collaborating, not fighting about it. That's my opinion.

Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
That's it. Yeah, I get you. It's like with Twitter or X or whatever. To me, that is like hell. I mean, I've got to be honest with you. It's just a million opinions flying around. Everyone thinks their opinion is correct. And it gets so frustrating.
