Hi Greg,

Maybe I have been reading papers by the bad ones.... However, I have to disagree with your statement that their speculation is based on evidence. Sometimes their speculation is based on an <i>interpretation</i> of evidence, which is quite different from speculation based on hard (unambiguous) evidence. There are also speculations based on unsubstantiated theories. When alternative authors do this sort of thing, they are attacked, but I have read a number of papers in which Egyptologists or archaeoastronomers do the very same thing and no one "exposes" or debunks them. It looks like a double set of standards.

I agree completely with the rest of your post, and especially like paragraph # 5.
