You don't see it, because I don't think it is. Incompetence, arrogance, close-mindedness, that is what it is. An unwillingness to contradict another fellow scientist, that is what's going on. Only after decades somebody is willing to step up and possibly risk their career in doing so. Many scientist who did in the past got ridiculed, by their own peers. Not by some science denier, by their own kind. So let's not pretend that scientists are much better in being objective and accurate. They are not.I don't see why you think this is some sort of conspiracy to hide the ancient ruins..
And it doesn't mean Hancock is right, but is after all, nothing but preliminary right?
Hey remember when the continental drift was considered crazy talk? 30 years after this scientist's death, only then mainstream science were willing to accept this preliminary nonsense as fact. Even though evidence was presented long before. Just one of the many examples.
So no, I am not listening to arrogance any more as I am willing to listen to journalism. I like the fact that archeology is discussed, and that science is talked about and considered by people other than academia and researchers. I am open to all possibilties regarding the Gobleki Tepe site, which is by itself a challenge to prior conventional thought. Interesting to see where it is going.
