Well, he said that there are many theories about the construction but none
of them is accepted as the only plausible one. They are still arguing why
they bilt them.

No need for that. I can read in 2 languages. Not much comparing to others
but sufficient to keep me busy. I've seen a few National Geographic
programs among others and don't think that we know all about it. There
were experts trying to prove their theories about the construction on a
smaller scale and mostly failed. Their theories failed like NT, they won't
scale.

When it comes to books, libraries, and the net I can find proof of
anything including chupacabras. 

I'll buy you a .5 liter (that's more than a pint) of beer anyway, how's
that?
