Update on Atlantis
Monday, August 27, 2001 by DavidK | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I've been told there was a leak from the team that's investigating the mysterious formations discovered off the coast of Cuba.
The word from an *inside* source is:
The initial reports based on the side-scan sonar readings are true. They have found an entire city at a depth of 2,200 feet about fifty miles off the coast of Cuba. The city has pyramids, roads(like highways) buildings and looks like a complete urban development. It is in a plain of rolling white sand dunes that stretches for miles.
An official announcement of the discovery will be made later this year after more exploration can be done, some academic evaluations can be made and the impact of this news on society can be assessed. There is a joint effort which includes National Geographic involved in the exploration and a lot of copyright issues have to be resolved as well.
No news will be released before the public announcement is made but this member of the team felt it was important to let the world know the discovery is proving to be as important as as the initial reports indicated. They said that among the teams diving at the site the common thread of discussion is - "We've discovered Atlantis".

Swallowed by the earth perhaps? And I though Sumerians predated Egypt by serveral millennia.
