Well I Find Places Like Macchu Picchu, The Pyramids And Angkor Wat 
pretty amazing, especially from an engineering and/or architectural viewpoint.

You cant really compare that sort of stuff to mapping the human genome. 
Also Comparing 
them to the average skycraper and/or sport stadiums is also silly IMHO. The mayan and egyptian pyramids hardly have a mm between each rock, not to mention the location of stuff like Macchu Picchu etc. 
But 
I'm not making a case for these things being technologically superior, I was simply pointing out that we should still be amazed by them. 
The Human Brain Named Itself 
 
Heh 
^ Makes More Sense 
I like the derogative "mainstream" in reference to science.

The moon causes tides? Oh, please, that's what mainstream gravitologists say. There is evidence all over the planet (look at the signs!!) that it is an ancient water power generator which some people (LOL!) refer to as a myth like Atlantis.

Snow is cold? It's just a psychological reaction to white powder that "their" scientists around the time of Jesus of Nazareth implanted into the masses using sinusoidial audio pressure. There is proof in all ancient societies that you can reduce the feeling of coldness by meditation or hypnosis. Of course those techniques are ridiculed by the mainstream. 
 
err Ricky, the WP link includes an explanation as to how the stones might have been moved. 
 
I've seen demos where people have moved stones the size of easter island heads up hills and then righted them. It's all possible with some smart people doing the planning.

Assuming that anything you don't understand is the work of aliens is silly. 
Funnily Enough 
We don't know how they moved the heads. There was a lever and rollers system posited be it proved to be unworkable.

Probably why the original populace rebelled and cast down the moan - the work of moving them was just too much.

The impressive thing is what it would have taken to actually move a few tonnes of rock with just what you can find on a tiny island.

That's ancient technology - blood sweat and tears. 
 
OK, I Surrender. But This Is Cool 
This guys shows how one man could lift a gigantic stone block. If you had enough time, you could dig the center stone under a huge block, dig out one side, and literally do the whole process single handed:

holy fuck Ricky you are retarded.

In the words of a wiser man than you, I give you some advice:

p.s1-> put the gun in your mouth
p.s2-> put real monition
p.s3-> make us that favor!
 
Hah! 
Scampie that isn't a very nice thing to say to someone you know. Shows what kind of person you are I guess. 
 
I beg you consider how many people I might have known who did commit suicide before saying something as insulting as that. 
Pyramids 
This one time I put a pyramid in a q3 map and it was pretty sweet. 
RE #23501 
It's a shame I can't beat the shit out of you through the internet you worthless fuck. I hope your nearest and dearest die in a fire if they haven't already. 
Roulf 
 
Drama On The Interbutts
