Sam is only partially right about the Grand Canyon (and the
Colorado River, incidentally).

It was actually chiselled out of the earth by three micro-lasers of almost infinite force, mounted on a platform lowered from a Flying Saucer. It was achieved in THREE MINUTES of Flying Saucer Time!

What Sam did not tell you is that the conversion tables showing the relation of Flying Saucer Minutes to Earth minutes have been screwed up for some time. According to the most recent calculations, 3 minutes of Flying Saucer Time now converts to 27.384786 BILLION YEARS of earth time.

So yes, they did a good job, but NO, it was not all that fast.
And the earth was here before they began!

Namaste!

Jim
