Thanks Bob Anderson!

say this is a big book is an understatement, the PDF reader says 578
pages and I'll say it's not easy reading. While Abraham Lincoln was
president and shortly after, all this activity was happening in Egypt
and the language reflects a time before intellectualism was dumbed down
and I fear that information such as Piazzi Smyth presents has been
nearly lost.
I did not realize that Great Britain even debated
moving to the metric system over a hundred years ago, it reminds me of
the US's feeble attempt in the '70's but without a hint of the
understanding that fueled the earlier attempt; our simple "debate" was
about how hard it would be to change. In a nutshell, the Metric system
is based on the circumference of the earth while the Pyramid/English
system is surprisingly based on the polar radius of the earth ... who
knew!
I went to other sources such as Wikipedia and various
YouTube videos about the Great Pyramid, but the generally, though not
universally, accepted idea is that it's merely Cheop's crypt even though
Smyth destroyed that idea completely ... many seemed to consider him
merely a religious fanatic. Some things don't change.
Even
though it was tough reading I got a lot out of it. It would not
surprise me at all if during the Millennium the system of weights and
measures indicated by the Great Pyramid would be applied by Jesus
worldwide.
