to clarify, i just think its perplexing that i can't find a solid scientific explanation of puma punku and other similar ancient world marvels. these sort of things have scientists, historians, archaeologists and the likes scratching their heads. <- might be flirting with the 'some people' aggregate. more or less, its just a fun topic of discussion. blaze me all you want internerds, but i'd rather have an actual discussion. perhaps i should rename this topic as 'lets talk about puma punku' or something because thats all i really want to do.
The scientific evidence is in the peer-reviewed articles. You should check them out if you're really interested in learning more. The difference between "some people" and "experts" is that some people are being interviewed by the History channel and the experts are publishing articles in scientific journals.

You don't get the luxury of saying "some people say it would be impossible" in a peer-reviewed publication. You have to say why it is impossible so that other people can reference you and your reasons.
edit I'd like to be clear about something - if historians, archaeologists and scientists alike are scratching their heads, then the reasons why would be published in scientific journals. You can't trust the word of the History channel that it's as big a mystery as they'd like you to believe. Remember, in the next half hour they'll claim that experts are baffled by ghosts.
