I would, but I know next-to-nothing about exo-archaeology (yes, it's spelled "ae" ), or the Ancients, and his theories on ancient Egypt are harder to swallow than Mt. Rushmore.

And "oe". As in oeconomy. And 'connexion', 'reflexion' etc. But *NOT* "crucifiction" - that would mean 'moulding into the shape of a cross'.

Canadian spelling = English spelling. English spelling of English language = correct.
