<HTML>Yeah I'm with you, the OCT is not a mirror image, the point Krupp is making is valid though and neither you nor Bauval have been able to address it (nor can you address it). If the AEs wanted an unambiguous map of the stars they would have represented them in the orientation Krupp advocates.
-----------------

So let me get this straight....when you thought Krupp was advocating an accurate representation, you said that a mirror image was wrong. Now that you realize the Krupp is advocating a mirror image, you think that an accurate representation is wrong.

Is it your position that whatever Krupp thinks is correct must be so? Well...I can hardly be expected to argue against that! :-)

However, I maintain that because a mirror image is a *reversal* of the stars that your original intuition is correct - a mirror image is counter-intuitive as a means of modeling the stars (or anything else for that matter) accuratly.

If the Egyptians wished to model the stars on the ground, they would have done so - and not mirror them as Krupp advocates. There is only ONE way to accurately model the stars: and that method is congruent with the pattern we see at Giza.

Imagine that an American Flag was lifted high on a flag pole and that people below were dressed in red, blue and white. How would you arrange those people on the ground to model the flag? Would you mirror the flag? Would that be the proper way to accurately model its appearance?

-------
We're not aligning pyramids any more though are we?
-------

Well actually.....yes we are. :-)

I got sidetracked by the Mortuary Temples because they practically jumped out of the sand at me the match appeared so obvious - but ultimately, I could not support an alignment based on those structures. I can support one based on the Pyramids. Most definitely.

---------
If you're using the MTs for this isn't this getting suspiciously close to what Horizon did with buildings in Manhattan?
---------

We maintain the requirement of internal consistency. We don't match the sphynx plux a MT plus a suspicious pile of dirt (lol). :-) All the structures are the same.

The alignment is exact with only a three foot margin of error. As to whether this will *prove* intent on the part of the AEs I believe it will - but I will rely upon expert opinion to evaluate that matter. My contribution ends at the point of establishing the exactitude of the correlation.

----------
If you have enough targets I'm sure that you can find 3 that will match perfectly.
----------

You are correct. But we do not have that luxury.

-----------
Is the match perfect at Abusir too?
-----------

I have yet to examine that case. However, such an alignment appears impossible to support statistically -- because there are only two pyramids at that location (if I understand correctly). Three is the minimum number to support an "alignment" through statistical analysis.

-----------
I'm just waiting for a convincing argument from you and nothing less than that.
-----------

Of course. And I respect that. I am struggling to finish this paper as quickly as I can.
