RIP. and thanks for all the books, especialy The End of Childhood
BTW, geostationary orbit satellites aren't exactly his invention, he just popularised the idea (I present evidence here)

jimnms: Yes, but must not have been included on the clip. This is from ACC's "Mysterious World" series that aired back in the early 80's(?). I just recently ripped them all to DVD; pretty lucky too as they were all on an 18 year old videotape that I had made in SLP. If you like "In Search Of" with Nimoy, you'd dig Mysterious World. Good stuff.

The skull is probably a humbug. If you look at the evidence presented in the wikipedia article on it, it is fairly clear from examining other similar skulls that they are 19th century artifacts, probably crafted in Germany.

As with so many paranormal and "exceptional" stories, science and logic takes precedent over people with supposedly sincere motivations who claim things with absolutely no proof or evidence. This is a prime example where you have a cute little old lady spinning yarns and it just feels "mean" not to believe her since she talks with such passion about it. Ultimately though, such "evidence" as presented by her is just hearsay.

Oh, and it is very sad the Arthur C. Clarke died.
