Basically I watched some program on tv a while ago, Laird was in that program for a brief interview.
What got me was that although much of the rest of the program (dealing with Ancient Egypt) was typical specualtive and dramatic fare, here was this
guy, a software programmer, who simply began comparing symbology of the Egyptian hieroglyphics to Dogon symobology.
I have read 2 of his books since ordering them recently. And I must say that in light of the onward march of our mainstream scientific theories of
Quantum physics and those describing the creation and makeup of matter etc., some of his conclusions are amazing.
I had read the early pages of this topic and not wanting to downplay the discussions of planets, Sirius et al, I found it mostly typical back and
forth bordering on flights of fancy.
Seeing as you obviously took the time to research the topic, I automatically assumed you might already have an opinion on what Laird Scranton has
published.
At the very least, what he has put together, allows those interested in the subject, to put aside the conclusions offered by Marcel Griaule and
Germaine Dieterlen, and instead look at it with regards to the symbology through the eyes of up to date science as hypothesized by the likes of
Hawkings and Greene.
Found another link to an interview..

Laird himself is defending his work in that last link, which makes for interesting reading in itself.
