     And let's not forget the flat Earth theory, which still exists in this   
   age of photos from space showing a blue ball of rock hanging in the   
   void. There's even a Flat Earth Society, which claimed on its web site   
   some years back that "The Flat Earth Society has members all over the   
   globe..." Yeah, the Earth is flat, like their heads!
