Don,
This is probably too off-the-wall to be of use to you, but there
used to be a quackball theory that the earth is doughnut-shaped, with
openings at the poles. One version of the theory had it that flying
saucers were from the people who live on the inside of the earth. The
basis for the theory is the supposed stability of the torus shape (though
I note that we haven't found any torus-shaped planets or asteroids so
far). Supposedly Hitler was a believer in the theory and sent a ship to
look for the opening; I don't know if this is true or not, so it probably
isn't.
By the way, it's nice to run into you again. I was one of your
tormenters when you were answering endless questions for the RBCC (the
specific one who asked for the WDC&S index, which probably left an
impression on you). I'm glad to see that you've gone on to fame if not
fortune. Your art was good then, but it really has become much better
than I ever would have guessed.
