You should believe NONE of what you hear and only HALF of what you see. lol
This thread has kinda strayed into oblivion, so to the OP I will say that I don't think the pyramids will work... And yes, I watch History and Discovery channels! 🙂

"This thread has kinda strayed into oblivion"
I believe that technically (ha ha)..this thread should have been in the "Part 15 Fest" section where items for sale or wanted are listed. Perhaps it would not have strayed as much.
Wording is powerful. Imagine how dull and boring this thread would have been..not to mention lack of replies...if OP had not used the word "pyramid" in the title.
I mean think about it! What vast range of discussion would have churned out from the mere word "copper".
And besides, the cap stone of the Great Pyramid was made from.....(drum roll please)...COPPER! (actually it was gold, but OP's little pyramids are copper)
The OP added some sweet icing to the cake and everyone is taking a bite out of the baker's wonderful creation. 😀

"My wife refused to repeat the instructions that had already been given, and emphasized the need to actually attend class. The stupid student said, "I don't need class because I know how to use the internet."
Indeed. Problem nowadays is even some who are physically in class are not really there mentally....they are deep into their text messaging and facebook updates.
"The content of the net has been over-rated. A librarian I know said that if all the pages were ripped out of all the books in the library and strewn on the floor you would have the internet."
Sounds more to me like someone who has no idea how to use a search engine. In the case of a library filled with books, its known as an index, all those small drawers with those little hand written cards and red numbers on the upper right corner matching the insert card on the back side of the front cover of the books.
Just because there is an abundance of info on the web, does not mean that it is unorganized. Now if there was no such thing as search engines..then yes perhaps one could state that the web consists of nothing more than scattered pages strewn all over the planet.
And those who were using the web at the very beginning, just after the BBS era, when there were no search engines but tons of websites, you know what I mean. Hence is why things like Google and Go Get It and Fetch were started up.
Surprisingly...it would shock many to learn how very few actually know how to use a search engine..much less a wall full of cabinet drawers filled with index cards.
Like how many times does it take for a population in a known area that receives ice and snow every year, to realize that its time to slow down and not use the accelerator pedal when sliding all over the place!!! (ya you all over there in the north east!!!) :p J/K
