Giants - again

Many thanks Dallas for your time and trouble in answering my query re-
recent discoveries of the remains of giants. So often in theosophical
discussion it happens that we seem to be relying on "ancient"
evidence when this is not credible to many enquirers. Eg. if bones of
giants were exposed in earthquakes etc and recorded by chroniclers of
the ancient world, why don't we have the evidence from modern
systemmatic investigation, from a much larger population where the
earth's land area is more settled and monitored than in ancient days.
Perhaps the answer lies in the book you mentoned published in San
Diego last year regarding scientific cover-ups. I would be glad to
know the details of this book, though one can't help thinking that if
anybody discovered the bones of a giant human they would be certain
to advertise the fact as they would be certain to obtain a grant for
extra scientific investigation!

Have you seen the excellent article by Bill Savage in the Theosophic
Link 8:3 (also on the WWW at the American Section TS (Pasadena) site)
coordinating HPB's chronology of the ancient history of the human
race and modern scientific timelines? He mentions the possibility
that self-conscious humanity and dinosaurs may have coexisted for a
while. To me it seems the enormous interest in movies like Jurassic
Park and Godzilla bespeak of some deeply rooted shared memories of
these creatures in the human psyche.

Thankyou also for your comments on the antiquity of some buildings in
ancient Egypt and the material by Charles Fort and Veikovsky. Gives
me plenty to think about and points to the value of the Internet as a
medium for sharing perspectives across the oceans.

All the best,
