Well at least I finally got my curosity satisfied as to what the site was all about.
What are you talking about? Someone did teach the ancient Egyptians how to make batteries. We have several of them in museums now. They are large clay pots that would be filled with citrus juice and then have a copper pipe inserted into them.Re: DOOPArts: documented-out-of-place artifacts
That's a very interesting subject. Like Brent, I've heard of this story on some rare occasions, but some questions still pop up in my mind.
The time travellers did probably not leave computer there, in the past, because there was no electricity in that time, how would the 386 work without power ? They must have managed a way to plug it in the time machine to make it work and show it the people in that time. I can't see how "God" could give laptops computers as gifts, because once the battery is dead, the laptop will never work again.
It's very interesting to imagine that time travel could have occured in the late 1990s, about ten years after the end of the cold war. Could the time machines had been designed during the cold war era by USSR ? BTW, like you said Eddy, perhaps some time travellers came from the far distant future to get the computer and CDs, but why these exact CDs from the 90s ? The future time travellers theory is valid, but I can't see why they would stop in the 90s to pic some old computer and cd-roms.
The picture with these people from 1830 with that little box containing what looks like CD boxes makes me wonder if it might be true after all.
Good finds![]()
I agree they had batteries back then. I don't think those ancient batteries had enough output power to allow a 1990s computer and a CRT screen to run for more than a few seconds.What are you talking about?

Yes. Screen resolution may be different, but the cd-rom would still run.I used to have an old laptop with windows 95 on it, it should have met the requirements of Ronald Pegg's theory quite nicely
