j's dad has us watching a sci-fi show on crystal skulls tonight. the only person that sounds like she has all her marbles is the smithsonian lady in your article. some of these people are so far out there even the dad admits their thinking is questionable. none of them agrees with or wants to believe the findings of Ms. Walsh.
I saw the ads for the show (how could you miss 'em during Battlestar??) but I couldn't bring myself to watch it. It's pretty goofy stuff, which sadly the SciFi channel specializes in (barring BSG of course) -- right up there with "Ghost Hunters" and the numerous assorted Bermuda Triangle, UFO, and Loch Ness shows they seem to broadcast with regularity...
It's kind of funny that the SciFi channel glamorizes this as possibly "real" given that "Fi" stands for a really important word in all of this!
