“They got all these carbon dates that are all over the place, right? But they tend to lean to that 250 years older. So to make it work they eliminated all the dates that didn't correspond with a known ruler and then they favored the dates that were the most recent. And that's just the most ridiculous thing ever.”

“But imagine how much they'll lose if people look around and if they really look hard and find nothing. They spend millions of dollars and find jack shit then not only do you lose the millions of dollars, but you kind of kill the mystery.”

“I think he deleted somebody. I think he deleted another dynasty. I think he claimed their shit as his own cuz you can't erase a dynasty if they got a big ass building without stealing that building as your own.”
