With a 300-by-328-foot base, I wonder how they came up with a "9,000 square mile" pyramid. I wonder if someone's slide-rule slid a bit. . . .

And if it were a classic pyramid shape (like the ones in Egypt), that would make it about 95 miles on a side and--um--lemme see: 95 x 95/2 . . . er . . . a² + b² = c² . . . uh . . . pretty damned tall!!

Most peculiar. Does Erich Von Daniken know about this?
