The legend of atlantis is ~12KYA.
as to RS of sphinx fame, he did not say they are purely natural, that is a lie, (from what I remember of the doco where I saw him talking about it) he said he believed they were likely natural shapes modified and augmented by humans.
I became convinced that presently, at the surface, natural wave and tidal action is responsible for eroding and removing the sandstones in such a way that very regular step-like and terrace-like structures remain. The more I compared the natural, but highly regular, weathering and erosional features observed on the modern coast of the island with the structural characteristics of the Yonaguni Monument, the more I became convinced that the Yonaguni Monument is primarily the result of natural geological and geomorphological processes at work. On the surface I also found depressions and cavities forming naturally that look exactly like the supposed "post holes" that some researchers have noticed on the underwater Yonaguni Monument.
of course since you are quoting him, here, I assume you now believe him to be right about the sphinx? (just joshing ya)
the "fringe" as you call it looks with their own eyes and makes up their own mind.

Okay, so where does he say modified or augmented?
The original dating of Schoch was closer to the 10,000 BC period. I can at least meet him part way, as I believe the ORIGINAL sphinx (with lions head) may be a little older than currently dated. The one with a human head I believe to be from Khafre's time. Even Schoch's dating has decreased over time. Last I read, he was saying somewhere between 6000 and 7000 BC.
My point to Skyfloating is that when it comes to the opinion of a geologist or a diver, I will take the geologist nearly every time.
the "fringe" as you call it looks with their own eyes and makes up their own mind.
Not when they buy anything people like Berlitz, Donnelly, Von Daniken and some others have to say hook, line and sinker.

(keep something in mind though, just because the originator of a theory modifies or changes his/her opinion, does not invalidate it, nor does his/her version of the theory "limit" later expansions. There is no such thing as an infallible expert/source

When I see stairs and straight lines and worked surfaces underwater I assume artificial build, regardless of what Schoch says or doesnt say.

You will note that I didn't engage FT on the conspiracy portion of his document - I engaged the archaeological portion. Did you note that?
There is no NWO conspiracy, however you seem to be of the ilk that says basically, "anything that happens is because of the conspiracy", using that method of reasoning everything always fits. All the contradiction, silly stuff, and illogical stuff fits right in.
Okay lets try a test of your conspiracy aptitude:
Explain why the NWO conspiracy did the following:
[conspiracy mode on]
1. After conning the US people into agreeing to a US invasion of Iraqi - why didn't they arrange for weapons of mass destruction to be found there?
2. Since the NWO was behind the planes hiting the WTC why weren't the hijackers ID as being Iraqis and Afghanistani (since that is were the NWO wanted the invasion to go to)?
3. Explain the point of the NWO allowing the existence of the internet and its use to expose their evil plans.
Oh and for grins and giggles tell us what there two top secret objectives are - by the way how do you know them?
