Hi Folks, I got an email from Inner Traditions / Bear & Company, a publisher of strange books. Their newsletter is always amusing and this one was also synchronistic. The title of this one was: Demand the Evidence for Alien DNA - Sign the Petition It continued with: "We wanted to inform you of the release of Zecharia Sitchin’s magnum opus, There Were Giants Upon the Earth, which culminates with the identification of the alien goddess Puabi, whose 4,500-year-old skeletal remains—discovered in the Royal Tombs of Ur—may still contain DNA from her alien home planet. "Mr. Sitchin has urged the Natural History Museum of London, where the remains of the goddess Puabi are stored, to conduct DNA comparisons with human genomes. To date, the museum has not complied. "To further Mr. Sitchin’s “Goddess of Ur Genome Project,” we are spearheading a petition, “Demand the Evidence for Alien DNA,” appealing to the museum to allow the extraction of Puabi’s DNA for genetic testing to determine the missing genetic link—the DNA difference that upgrades us from wild hominids to modern man. " etc etc... Now just in case some of you want to sign the petition, the URL is below. Who knows? Maybe there are aliens on the planet and what better way to find them than with DNA. www.InnerTraditions.com/sitchin So sorry for the off topic post. If the list were busy, I'd not have sent it off but it is quiet so maybe we can get off a joke. I am sorry if you are an alien and offended by this message. Linda Merle
