Scope and content
Has just read an article about Ice in the Auckland star. Asks if FH has read Otto Muck's book In search of Atlantis, which describes how the island of Atlantis disappeared, and the climate of Northern Europe altered as a result of an asteroid impact. Asks for FH's opinion of the idea. Notes that the 'silly ideas of Mr Von Danniken have been expensively decried on T.V.', but that Muck is never mentioned. Also thinks FH should read Descent of woman by Elaine Morgan. Doesn't like the big bang and asks 'what cam before the original 'singularity''.
