People, the original post in this thread was indeed a joke. Let's NOT turn
it into a serious discussion of something which is in no way related to
language.

Hello Jack:

I don't know who built the pyramids. I wasn't there.

I think you are correct, however, that the pyramid building ended about 2500
b.c.; and hebrews in egypt was about 1500 b.c.?

but .... nevertheless, doesn't the experience at serabit al khadim imply
egypt used lots of alien labor all the time?

Your apples and oranges were picked by aliens; why not egypt's stone cut by
aliens?

Isn't alien labor the popular; and indeed the only way to go ... in 3011
b.c., in the east; in 2011 a.d., in the west?

regards,

fred burlingame
