There were no power, telephone or telegraph poles in the East back in 1896 or likely up to 1903.
*I* think those two pics were photochopped. The guys in the pictures sure look a lot alike. Wonder if they are father/brothers/sons/cousins etc...

I suggest you also check the number of books published during the same time frame. Or published and translated in either direction...
From observation, Islam seems to limit progress, or at least it does not encourage it. To survive, there has to be a world-wide reformation, but I don't see that coming anytime soon. Other than that, it will be a war, overt or covert, whether we want it or not.

Anonymous 8:36: Well, think about it, it's pretty tough to get any engineering accomplished when you prepare for prayer, pray, return from prayer, repeat x 4/day.

That and their refusal to revere women for the delightful wonderful magickal creatures they are are the major shortcomings of this moon-worshiping death cult.

A world wide islamic reformer would be called a false prophet and murdered by salafists.

Doug, the practice run for the backlot production was done in '68. This was just a promo from that set... the real filming was done in spring '69... and released in July... on the 21st, IIRC. I watched on my roommates 12" BW set ... even took a pic of the TV with Gramps Leica 35mm for posterity.
