Rasol

This was a great piece of information you shared with us.

http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=8;t=003345#000008

Can you please repost your research find to this new thread.
It's too good of an uncovering to be obscured elsewhere.

^Wrong thread (plus old news).

Back on topic:

I'm waiting for Rasol to repost his entire thread.
I would do it myself but I prefer it have his name
as the poster since it is his research alone.

If you are looking for related discussions, then these would qualify as examples:

Vague terms: a diffusionist favorite

The term "MIddle East" origin

There are likely other examples of such topics in the archives.

Its interesting to see what eurocentric lies the forum's butler thinks should stop and those he believes should not. And not only that believes he should help propagate.

^Precisely; I guess that's EXACTLY why I posted this which caused the "movie director" guy to send me lengthy back and forth PMs over (uninentionally) hurt feelings. Which I regret as I didn't go about it the best way and the alleged movie director guy supposedly had alot of problems even casting blacks for lead roles in the films .. which makes sense since this is hollywood. But, correct you are again Jackedassoben [Roll Eyes] .

Hey, you can't blame a jackass for farting or its
fart content being gaseous as to ignite as soon
as exposed to air.

But what can you say about those who try conversing
with a flaming wild ass fart?
