It is fact -- not fiction -- that Immanuel Velikovsky

Whatever else he was, he was not a genealogist.
Velikovsky didn't have the foggiest notion, when launching
his original research, that it would eventually lead to his
pair of mind-boggling books, "Worlds in Collision" and
"Earth in Upheaval."
Neither of which have anything to do with genealogy.
It was simply a case of one thing leading to another.
As, no doubt, was the case of your posting this in alt.genealogy
MAN AS OLD AS COAL
Your brain is still fossilized, Ed.
Unfortunately, it's not high-quality anthracite, but inefficient old lignite.
A lot of smoke, little fire, and no genealogy.
