Blair's company bored five inch holes haphazardly near the beach in an attempt to block the tunnel

On it were written with a quill pen the script characters 'v' and 'I.' Had a message been left behind with the treasure? Blair tired of boring holes into the chamber and began sinking more shafts around it

He seemed to have a theory that if enough holes were dug the water would finally drain out of the pit and leave the treasure high and dry


Aquatic Ape Theory: Sink or Swim?
A critique of the aquatic ape theory, with examples refuting the basic premises
of the theory.

Quite frankly, when I first read the work done on the AAT/H, I saw some big holes in the reasoning, but I did think that the evidence which was (sometimes) given was probably accurately and fully reported

(This does, of course, assume they're trying to do a good, accurate job at what they're saying.) It may not sit well with everyone, but quite frankly, I find it really annoying when good science is taken to task for not accepting a theory which is so full of holes and mistruths, and which is argued for so dishonestly
