Flat Earth or Ultimate High?



A review of "Satellites Are A Hoax & The Earth Is Flat" 

This crazy e-book is written by a conspiracy-monger who wants to prove that – wait for it – the Earth is flat and the stationary center of the universe. The geographical center of inifinity, perhaps?

The “book” is written in an extremely unserious style, with a lot of sentences in caps. Every paragraph seems to end with “LOL” or “Hahahaha”. This work cannot possibly have been written by four scientists or intelligence operatives. It was obviously penned and canned by a troll. At one point, the anonymous author actually admits that his opus may not be top notch: “If you’re looking for a book with grammatically correct sentences and is lots of fun and fiction go pick yourself up a Harlequin Romance or Stephen King Novel or better yet, A free NASA pamphlet. If you want facts with a flow that is in-your-face, as if I were speaking to you... stay here.” (Kindle Locations 216-219).

But sure, the ghost-writer probably does believe that the Earth is flat and that NASA is involved in a gigantic conspiracy to cover up The Truth. But then, he probably believes in the Face on Mars and leprechauns, too. So why bother. Or, as the author would no doubt put it: Hahahahaha!
