You like a lot of conspiracy theories.  People who have a difficult time understanding cause and effect naturally gravitate to them.

Or, in the case of katmai, they gravitate to him.

Cause and effect? What's that?

Katmai have too much mass.

We are the katmai. Resistance is fusball.

I like the Ancient Astronaut conspiracy theory.

I once watched the Ancient Astronaut show on the History Channel.  I felt stupider after having watched it.   :(

While watching it a premise for a book came to me.  Rival Ancient Astronaut trading houses were working against one in order to dominate their Aztec puppet state and thereby establish a monopoly on the inter-galactic chocolate supply.  In the end they're destroyed by their own greed and we learn that we should all share and share alike.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I was always wondered why Aliens would show up to encourage people to build Pyramids or Stonehenge but fail to impart knowledge like the wheel to humanity.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Those ancient aliens found human beings delicious.  Stonehenge, which is a calendar for planting, or Pyramids, which gives one a free granary in every city, increased the population; that way the ancient aliens could eat the surplus.  It's a win-win.

I, jokingly, call us a "slurplus".

You must be living in an alternate reality.
The Pyramids gives you two free workers and 25% increase in the building speed for land improvements.

The Pyramids let you choose any form of government even if you haven't discovered the right tech for it.  :P

Not true. You choose your government indirectly by choosing your policies.
I am now Doge Siege because I have been choosing policies in the Commerce policy tree.
