Hell, I have two big balls O' rock right between my legs!

Now that you mention the spark plug and the round balls - Do you think they had some kind of power tool that would chop into rock? LOL

On a serious matter - I would like to know how they made the balls of rock that smooth. If you just hacked at it with a chisle it would be lumpy as fuck. They didnt have sand paper then - and if they did, it would be almost useless.

Thing won't load for me for some reason.

Does it say how old the rock is?

Sanding of the stone can be done using another rock quite easily.

The sperical shape is harder but can be done using simple math.

The spheres are stone balls made of granite. They vary in size from about the size of an orange to giant balls measuring more than six feet in diameter and weighing 16 tons. All are perfectly round to within two centimeters

Thousands of these balls have been found along river beds and in ancient cemetery sites in the valley of the RÃ*o TÃ©rraba, located in the southwest portion of Costa Rica, and on CaÃ±o Island, nine miles off the Pacific coast. Some of them were found at locations more than fifty miles from the nearest site from which they could have been quarried. They have not been found anywhere else in the world.

and the fossiles,

This fossil which corresponds perfectly to a human handprint shows astounding detail. Even the print of the thumb nail can be seen. It is found in the Glen Rose limestone which is designated as Middle Cretaceous, supposedly 110 million years old and contemporary with the dinosaurs

And about ancient flying er whatever,

Even more controversial than the model airplane are the enigmatic carvings found in the temple of Abydos, Egypt by Dr. Ruth Hover. Hover photographed a wall panel which had been revealed when a newer overlaying panel crumbled and fell off. The older panel beneath contained embossed images that resemble modern aircraft as seen in profile.

Hmmm, the only explanation i can give to that is that The Great Flood washed away many people and only few survived - washing technology away with it.
