I think you might need to look a little deeper into the Compass and it's true accuracy. The BEST compass available today has an accuracy of about half a degree. With 1/4* resolution. That is a Tri-axis GPS based device that runs about $150k. The lodestone compass believed to be the first compass ever made (The Olmec artifact) has an inherent accuracy of around +-5*. Which was dated about 1000-1200 years AFTER the construction of the Pyramids. There is no evidence of any magnetic ore or indications of compasses in any hieroglyphics so it is highly unlikely the Egyptians had acess to any such device. And since you need Sleddy to come to your rescue ask him if it's even possible to level a 13 acre plot to within a half inch even with today's best Trimble GPS units. This is not even touching the subject that the Great Pyramid is precisely centered on the Earth's land mass. They may have been constructed by slaves (highly unlikely) but 1 thing is certain the masters were not from this world.
And as to the South and their (your) abilities. You idiots could not even evacuate a small city with 48 hours notice of an impending hurricane. I am pretty sure I saw some of your Civil engineers looting liquor stores and Best Buy's on the news. And didn't the geniuses tell people to go into their attics, assuring them a certain death even though they knew the median level of Lake Pontchartrain averaged 5-15' above most housing in the city. And what is the labor count now 75-80% out of state contractors trying to rebuild that sediment pond y'all call a city. I mean really what kind of retards would build a city below sea level to begin with.
LOL :bang
Allright now simma down sinna, that might rhime ifen you say it right. i use a Sunto campass and i dont wear glasses because that can throw it off, you are correct, it will read to a 1/2 degree, but you can guestimate to a 1/4 but those surveyors have the ability to do something with the sun they can pop that north line great, they dont need a compass man.I cant remember how they do it but they use the sun.
Now get back to me on "This is not even touching the subject that the Great Pyramid is precisely centered on the Earth's land mass" WTF does this mean? this one has got my brain scrambled up like scrambled eggs.
WTF does that mean?
