A little while ago I saw a show about this phenomenon on The Learning
Channel, where the astronomically significant proportions of the pyramids was
described in some detail. Then, as a counter-point, the same type of
methodology was applied to downtown Washington, DC, with similiarly impressive
astronomical results. The conclusion, I guess, is either that the signifcance
of the proportions of the pyramids is an inferential phenomenon, or the layout
of DC is a lot more significant than is commonly realized!
