This is almost as bad as Hovind's theme park : Dinosaur Adventure Land (http://www.dinosauradventureland.com/) :clap:

I wonder if I can get government funding to build my new theme park, "Crop Circle Land", in northern Ontario...

I've been to Corn Palace South Dakota (http://www.cornpalace.com/), it really does beat the Hell out of Mysteries of the World and HovindLand (and the walls are covered in real CORN!)...

“Archaeology is a conservative science and archaeologists do not ask stupid questions, but Erich von Däniken is not afraid to ask stupid questions,” he said.

Apparently, Eric Von Däniken is not afraid to set up Eric Von Däniken to be the butt of the joke either. By why does Eric Von Däniken refer to Eric Von Däniken in the third person? :cs:

Because he's obviously another sockpuppet of Genghis.

Was "chariot of the gods" really best selling? That's depressing if it's true.

'fraid so.

I did have the satisfaction of seeing a copy at a used bookstore. On the inside cover, the previosu owner had written:

"To whom it may concern: This is a very boring and stupid book."

You would need a huge amount of ink. In the UK most bookshops carry dozens of new age woo woo publications. It's truly depressing. :(

I do not think it is so much a question of stamping all stupid books (apart from the ink consider the work). It is more a question of that warm feeling inside of actually doing something about it and making the world a better place, although in a small way. Or it could of course also be the warm thrill of destroying others property at the risk of getting caught.

I love both those thrills, and combining them into one glorious action is almost too much to think about. :D
