I was thinking, after seeing the youtube intro on the APEX Institute website. Could the great focus of Atlantis and the supernatural like reincarnation have a side-effect on the facts of the bahamas research in terms of shunning other scientists and making them very skeptical about what is found there. And perhaps be more inclined to brush it off as sci-fi not wanting to get a reputation among the 'establishment' of being pro-atlantis and supernatural. In fear of not being taken serious anymore.

Should the Littos and Co. be more restrictive on their comments towards their research when it comes to these supernatural believes and Atlantis. And keep them to theirselves for the good of the result?

Or do you think it is a good thing they bring forward these points?


Am I the only one who would like more conclusive results as well? For instance, I keep thinking. The bimini road isn't submerged that much is it. Its quite shallow water. So would it not be possible to do like what my nation is famous for (the Dutch, The Netherlands) and build a dam around the site, get rid of all the water through pumps, and make it an excavation site. Enabling them to actually dig under the site and do proper research as if it was on land.
Or would the cost of this be huge?

I agree that some folks might be put off by the emphasis on Atlantis and, personally, I think proving the existence of a 10,000-year-old ancient maritime culture in the "new" world would be a fairly significant accomplishment by itself. However, everybody has their own beliefs and priorities that drive their lives, and we all have to respect that.

As for excavating the Bimini Road site, I imagine the government of the Bahamas would object to that! At least some of the work you read about on this site has been done under the Bill Donato's Archaeological Research Permit, which is issued by the National Museum of the Bahamas.
