Apparently.

-no word on if the metal will allow you to communicate with dolphins, if Atlantians were gilled and blue-skinned, if the Annunaki will now revisit the planet to seize this metal back, or how this metal was used to make the Pyramid power-stations, however.

I heard Syrett mention something about this last night but I don't get it. According to the article this shipwreck was from Greece's classical era when they had already passed out of the bronze (copper alloy) age and mastered iron. So what is the big deal about discovering a ship carrying a copper alloy?

I didn't listen to that show but, yes, I was a little perplexed also. Except that, I guess, the alloy is something special and not known to have been made (except by legendary Atlantians?) Maybe like what was really "greek fire?" type of thing? Or even the Clovis points in North America? I don't know. It would seem, to me, just mean an interesting find and learn more about what metallurgy/technology or trade or travels happened back in those days but, apparently, it is a sign of "Atlantis."

"The 39 orichalcum ingots unearthed off the coast of Sicily were analyzed and determined to be a roughly 80 percent copper and 20 percent zinc alloy containing trace amounts of iron, lead, and nickel."

That's it? I could have been communicating with dolphins all this time. Teasing them for not having thumbs.

If the dolphins DID have thumbs they would be smarter than humans, "of course"! So sayeth Norry. What is so amazing is that the article was so poorly written. And it was "Discovery" that, according to reports, is trying to go back to a more scientific and real nature, and less mermaid and prehistoric shark scam movies and shows.

That poor Discovery Science guy, he only wanted to be eaten by snake... seems like political correctness gone mad.

I remember how Arthur C Clarke was beginning to doubt dolphins were superintellegent, because they were too friendly with humans.
