Came across this in a thread over in talk.origins.
I have to say that I'm somewhat surprised that
nobody mentioned it here yet.
My own opinion? Bunk. Pure bunk...
| In partially solving a mystery that has baffled
| archeologists for centuries, a Drexel University
| professor has determined that the Great
| Pyramids of Giza were constructed with a
| combination of not only carved stones but the
| first blocks of limestone-based concrete cast
| by any civilization.

My guess is that a certain researcher just got
himself that proverbial "million dollars in free
publicity" by linking his new eco-friendly concrete
product to the pyramids.
