Wally, bad air does cause malaria -- when the contaminant in the air is mosquitos.

But be careful of what you choose to believe about these "amazing discoveries" Wally.

Charles Berlitz touted the Piri Reis map as proof positive that the ancients knew the coastline of Antarctica sans ice. When I finally got a look at the map, what Berlitz called "Antarctica" was just the South American coastline mistakenly drawn out to the east instead of continuing southward to Tierra del Fuego.

Ancient "navigational computers" have been found, but they are merely analog computers, which are nothing more than extremely complicated clockwork.

Mummies have been found in Iran, but it was discovered that the enterprising Middle Easterners had murdered modern people and mummified them to have "rare. ancient" Persian mummies to sell.

I have tried to keep an open mind. For instance, if God made the earth out of pieces of another planet, that might explain the presence of fossils.

Personally, I think that most science, when it gets to the cosmic level, is nothing more than updated myth. As the head elf in the Keebler commercials once said, "Some people don't believe in elves, so we keep a few factories around to make them happy."
