This reminds me of something a friend postulated to me years ago & was my first exposure of the concept.

Rule number one, Whitmore. If you're going to berate someone's spelling or grammar, yours must be perfect.


No, it doesn't. In fact that undermines the point of what I was trying to say.

Perfection in grammar, spelling and, most especially, punctuation is something to strive for; expertise doesn't come immediately.

I prefer to think of my approach as the "Points for Trying!" system.

You know the many universes concept, right? If you can think of it, it exists somewhere, in some universe? If it's in some universe, why not our own? There are many ways for things that seem to have intent behind them to be merely random products of nature. The reason the continents are shaped the way they are today is a direct result of such a process, and it is by no means inconceivable to think that erosion caused this shape.


great.. another chatspeaknazi (rolls exotic green eyes)

soo.. 'what' exactly do multiple universes have todo with ground erosion??
n what universe r U from? lol


Sorry if I came off as being a little too vehement. It's just something that bugs me a lot. What I was intending to say is that it's possible to imagine something, and it will exist somewhere, possibly even in our own universe. Perhaps it was a bad way of trying to explain the idea in my head. I just figure that if there are reasons to explain something, I am not going to discount them for the most part. It may be naturally made, or artificially.

As a side note, why mention the color of your eyes? And describe them as exotic? Are you *really* here to pick up guys? Because from your attitudes, I'd assume you wouldn't like what you'd find here. That's just my assumption, though.


i'm sorry if it bugs u, hon.. it's just the way i write. if it's any consolation, i type with 2 fingers too

in reply ur side note: because my eyes R exotic n green lol
but no, i'm not at all here to pick up guys.. altho that does tend to happen sometimes lol

I like you, Sheri.

Your writing might be a tad too unorthodox for my unforgiving eyes, but you take no guff from any man or woman.

I can dig that.

Sheri? All you're doing is giving them more ammunition to dismiss this as another instance of Pareidolia. Without further verifiable evidence (which I totally understand being withheld for your own reasons), you are NOT going to 'convert' anyone around here.

I, for one, am on the fence - I'm a skeptic about 'Captain God Rock', but I'm also skeptical about the 'natural erosion' conclusion. I have insufficient information to come to a decision myself, so I remain undecided. And, to be totally honest, unmoved.

Seriously, this is just a little less interesting than The Man In The Moon...or is it a rabbit? Or a woman's profile? Or a face? Or a person carrying a bundle of sticks over their shoulders?

Now THAT is thought-provoking; giving multiple possibilities!


i appreciate what ur saying, luv.. but i'm really not here to convince anyone of anything.

that being said, since i 'have' been in on this project for over a year, n heard many theories, both pro n con, when i read something here that's based on assumption, misinformation, or flawed logic, i feel compelled to comment on it.

Dead Last is actually part of an interrelated artistic community that spans the United States n parts of Europe. right now, we believe the best theories regarding what we're looking at r relegated to the realm of qualified visual artists, meaning people possessing a highly trained eye with a thorough understanding of anatomy, proportion, realism, relief sculpting, etc. Stone is held in the highest esteem by this group and would qualify as an expert.
this doesn't mean the Martian figure was created by an intelligence or otherwise.. we still have much to learn about it.

but if u want something 'thought-provoking'.. why not just imagine Sheri seductively walking toward u in the light of a full moon like an exotic wild panther approaching her prey? lol

while the dissenters among u r busy re-writing the 1st amendment, why not also BAN musical compositions such as the Beatles' "I Wanna Be Your Man", the Stones' "Gimme Shelter", or Fats Domino's "A Whole Lotta Lovin'"?

just to restate what's already been said.. i'm a professional ROCK MUSICIAN, which by its very definition is non-conforming. this is who 'i' am.. pink included.
i'm not a reg here.. i'm not competing in a spelling bee, n what everyone seems to be up in arms about is my use of a foreign language apparently unknown to u, called 'chatspeak'.

yes.. i'm a foreigner here. ur admonishing someone who's in this forum for the 1st time to answer questions, because she has an accent n dresses funny. i wonder if u display the same dogmatic intolerance outside ur little box.
but, at least U were polite about it lol

No. No. You don't get to be righteously indignant about this. It's not part of the first amendment that nobody can complain about the way you talk. We have said nothing about the way you dress, nothing about your "accent." We are not "intolerant." We aren't unfamiliar with chatspeak. And we're not trying to censor you or ban what you're saying, so stop acting like you're some misunderstood victim.

We're telling you that this is how this works in these forums- people talk in complete sentences, with spelling, punctuation, and grammar, and not in colors that make it hard on the eyes. If you want to talk like that, for the sake of "nonconformism," that's fine, but don't expect us not to call you out on your bullshit. Talking in chat speak is annoying to read and makes it more of a chore to read what you say. The same goes for the pink.

In the end, you're getting up in arms about us telling you how things work here. So stop trying to play the victim.
Well, hallo there.

I simply refuse to read your posts, Sheri, because they strain my eyes, which causes me pain even before I can make out the actual content and composition of the posts. It is a longstanding policy of mine to not read or view anything that's potentially damaging to my eyes, so I cannot read what you have to say, no matter what it may be.

I may be going blind eventually, but I see no reason to speed up the process, much less give myself splitting headaches while doing so.

please know that i don't mean to diminish ur visual problem in any way, n i certainly don't want to contribute to it.. but if u 'should' care to read what i write, it's very easy to left click ur mouse n run ur cursor over my text, which will turn it white.

in the alternative, u can also copy n paste it into any text file so it can be clearly seen in black n white

ps.. u can skip the last few posts lol
