* One of the reader comments posted about this article reads:

 "The best part of this story - besides the remarkable stupidity of it all - is that the New England Antiquities Research Association will be investigating. The group is full of a bunch of un-credentialed nut jobs. Nice work for the ET to do some hard hitting journalism here."

In the words of the Rebel Egytologist, "what a stupid ******* hypothesis".

Enjoy!
