Time Cube far and away. It explains how there are really four days in one, and how the educational system has kept us all from accessing the inner reaches of our minds.

It is a major cultural phenomenon. Even has its own wikipedia entry

I'll bet all those sites are by americans, there is a lot of crazy people there Maybe it's the variations of all kind of strange religions that make some peculiar

There is also people who belives Elvis Presley is still alive and several sites try to "prove" that. Don't remember the URL's, but one I remember have a image from the movie Home Alone claiming that a man in the background of the scene is Elvis. Well, the man looks a lot like Elvis in the early 70's. The only problem is that the movie is from 1990 where Elvis should be at least about 15 years older!

Oh, but Elvis is magical. He wouldn't age.

Give me a break. Americans have no monopoly on 'crazies'. In fact, we probably have fewer than some other countries, if you don't count California.

Speaking of giving someone a break - read more on the flat earth site. It's one big joke, as you can see by this quote from their current affairs page.

Quote:
Three loyal Flat Earth Society members, during a camping trip to the small African nation of Tunisia, came across a privately-owned 59 minute photo stand in the isolated northernmost corner of the desert country. Employing guerilla warfare techniques learned under Mao Zedong in the early 1920's, they were able to effortlessly seize control of the stand and are now using it to distribute pro-Flat Earth propaganda throughout the West African region.

You're so right John. The Flat Earth Society started in the UK......

Here's a short extract from this site
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_Ea...Earth_movement

"The modern flat earth movement was originated by an eccentric English inventor, Samuel Birley Rowbotham (1816-1884), who was motivated by his religious convictions that certain passages in the Bible are meant to be taken literally. In 1849 he published a 16-page pamphlet, which he later expanded into a 430 page book expounding his views."

Probably why I wasn't much good at football. It was a flat disc and I couldn't kick it very well!
See, I'm crazy and I'm not an American either

P.S. The apollo landing was staged, but not on earth. Here's an easy way to tell: Who's holding the camera? Haha. Or the footprints easily visible. Armstrong's leap for mankind wasn't the FIRST step on the moon. Maybe they went down and set up a camera for PR.

At least I was right about the religious convictions

Oh yes, that is something I do belive. They wanted the best possible footage of the "steps for mankind" or whatever they said.
