Default any body read Chariot of The Gods?

curious on on your thoughts...

just saw an hour long episode on the history channel titled "ancient astronauts" that was riveting. it centered on the international best seller, and the interviews / ideas / evidence of the author, and other people in the field.

anyway its my next book, for sure.

I think it was a book I considered picking up, but I'm waiting for Jim Butcher's next book in the Dresden Files series to come out in April.

Definitely sounds interesting.

Chariots of the Gods? People still talk about that book? Dude it came out like 25-30 years ago at least. Way back when the Bermuda Triangle was all the rage

i know it came out in the 70's , but there is more evidence, and nothing has been disproved.

right but that's kind of like saying the bible hasn't been disproved. It's a little hard to disprove it when it's all based on faith. Now if you asked scientists to disprove that gravity doesn't exist, they could do that.

Huh... I must have it confused with something else. The book I was looking at looked like a fairly recent release, and it was in the fantasy books aisle at the PX on Fort Hood. Granted, there's no telling if someone just left it there from somewhere else. Or if maybe I have the title wrong in my mind.

Fuck yes! I can't wait. I've already started re-reading the last nine or so, I'll be ready when my library gets it in. Buy last year's paperback, check out the new hardback, rinse, repeat. Sadly, he says he might end the series at around 20 of them.
