[CNN] Lost city of Atlantis found

[Mark]

It's amazing how much more we will continue to learn from under the seas and oceans of the world as our technology advances. So many ships have sunk and, unlike evidence from the past that is left on land, remain virtually untouched to discover. I'm not saying that their discovery has yet proved genuine (obviously not), but they'll probably find something of interest if they can get enough funding to explore it further.

"Look for Atlantis, find a couple of shipwrecks full of stuff!" as they say...well, as I say...just now, anyway.

Mere coincidence that Atlantis is discovered the very week that the Spongebob Squarepants movie is released? I think not.

What, again?

Here is the most interesting website www.atlan.org I ever did read on the Atlantis subject. No unrelated Aegean undersea ruin, neither some New-Age idiocy.

12,000 years ago was the end of an ice age, when the ocean level were 300-400 feet lower than today. Some civilizations existed (probably of the technological and organizational level of Antiquity), and they left some ruins that still exist in various place such as near Japan or Indian coasts: places that were submerged some 12,000 years ago.

I think this was a good discovery. While there is a lot of room for skeptism, techonology these days is getting harder and harder to prove wrong. I just hope that they keep updated the news everytime they do something new in that area. I would love to be part of the expedition that uncovered the sediment and found the city there. That would be so darned cool. I love archeology!!

Man, reading that stuff is dangerous. "Scientific evidence" indeed.

There is no "scientific evidence" in the research of that guy, but when you read it all, it seems rationale and logical. It's an hypothesis, but a convincing one.
