bravosierra To immediately assign such things as alien knowledge is insulting to the intelligence and ingenuity of our ancestors. I imagine that one thousand years from now, our computers and cars will be labeled as alien knowledge as well.
Seeing as it's one of a kind and no others have been discovered, I think it's alien knowledge, no disrespect meant. Plus in a 1000 yrs time, there would be a footprint of where 'said' knowledge came from, not some random mechanics that weren't around in the said time.......
