New timeline

A Russian mathematician and scholar, Dr. Fomenko, has recently devised a radical interpretation of world history-his book, 'New Chronology,' condenses antiquity and the dark ages into a brief time frame, and claims that most history began about 1000 AD- Jesus died around 1080AD, the Renaissance and Reformation barely happened at all, and Fomenko claims history was deliberately falsified after 1550, for political purposes, to denigrate the achievements of Russia. While certainly untrue, this tome is said to be an amazing and compelling monument to the human imagination, if nothing else. (Its unfortunately popular in some slavic countries, chess champion Gary Kasparov is a believer).


Lyndon Larouche's 'system' is even more fascinating, and harder to refute.
