Well, it's no laughing matter, I assure you.
I'm not brave enough to diagnose over the telephone, let alone from postings on a forum.
However, as you are aware, personality traits after a time become apparent, by repetition if nothing else.

Well it's making me smile.

You really are pathetic people.

If you can't attack the message with reason, then attack the messenger.

And then you want my respect?

You're just upset because I see right through your façade and I'm not as impressed with you as you are with yourselves.

Oh and by the way
The last word of Saunière's diary entry is the word SECRET.

Of course I do understand that most of you prefer to change this FACT in order to shoehorn your pet THEORY into all this. But hey some of us would like to get on with this and not be led down a blind alley by a Queen Bee.


Er............No, Roscoe .............the last word of the diary entry is 'Secret'........ the caps are important.
What's at issue is the interpretation of that word.
The one you are pushing so desperately is not supported by the context and translation.

With regards to the subject of the thread when did David Wood, professional Surveyor, talk about grafitti ?
It would help if you could clarify how his Surveying qualifications would help validate an opinion on grafitti?

I'm no mental health professional but it would seem that the language you use does suggest that
you crave our approbation and respect above all else.
Has it not occured to you that 'demanding a discussion' is not the best way of facilitating one?
Perhaps folk are just ignoring you as one does a fractious child demanding attention?

All the words start with capitals. Clearly a habit of Sauniere's. His meticulous use of accents is another habit of his.

BABOOM!!!!

Well I thought it looked like an alien from the planet Tharg crossed with bigfoot. I've never seen one but then the same goes for anyone seeing a Crista. :wink:

....might be wrong, but i assume this graffiti image was taken by whoever wrote the book you've scanned, from the Bulletin of the Society for Scientific Study of Aude. —T67. Page 30—1970 ?

Could it have been in Narbonne - if he saw the priest of Nevian on the following day, then he could have been en route to Narbonne? Perhaps? (I don't know by what route one would have traveled from RLC to Narbonne in those days, but Nevian looks kind of on the way). I can't, though, square that with the references to the other priests in the same line for 29th September, or the Cros reference. Just speculating aloud, probably get slapped down for it in a minute.

One further thought on his diary is that I'd been assuming that the entries were contemporaneous - in other words, the priest wrote it up every night. So I was confused as to how - if he was away between 28th September and 2nd October - he could have known of the death of the baker, recorded on 30th September.


Since mention of 'other priests' is in the diary, has anyone sought out diaries of these other priests contemporary with Saunier? What did they have to say about meeting Saunier? Or about his remodeling projects? Just curious as I have read back through the thread and did not notice any mention of this...

Ok Roscoe
I'll give it a try
just some thoughts
1. the pentacle or pentagram is
the big symbol here
it is on the roof of the church and on the weather vane


I do think the cross and the stars indicate the Galactic cross

It is a date Dec 21,2012 winter solstice

Roscoe,
i appreciate that you posting pattern means we won't hear from you between midday and 3am (why is that btw?)
So when you wake up or when Matron allows you internet access here's the question again.............

TD :wink:


Definition of Surveying "Surveying or land surveying is the technique, profession, and science of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the distances and angles between them. These points are usually on the surface of the Earth, and they are often used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership or governmental purposes.
To accomplish their objective, surveyors use elements of mathematics (geometry and trigonometry), physics, engineering and law."

As I read back through Arcadia posts, it seems a lot of people with far less qualifications are deemed 'experts' here, either by their own evaluation,, or by others here. They may have a background as clerks, or housewives, or school teachers, or bus drivers, yet somehow they become "experts" about ancient aliens, or bloodlines, or genealogy (French in particular) , or secret codes hidden in art and sculpture...or the pyramids, or Templar Treasures, or Magdalenes in oar-less boats, or skulls...or synchronicity, or hidden graves...no offense if I missed one of you.....it's a long list.

The list of "experts" here is quite impressive! If so many lesser educated people here can be "experts" then why not a 'Professional Land Surveyor'! I mean, he brings no more, nor less, credibility to the table of "experts" than any other.

How do we define "expert"? Expert compared to whom? To what standard?

Just making an observation and asking.
P.S. I didn't swear. I didn't go off-topic. I didn't use caps or colored fonts....I am behaving myself, as usual. :)
