BTW, the waters rise 15 cubits? (= 6.5m) - or maybe 15 cubits above Mt Everest?

His boat is 300 cubits long btw, and a cubit is 450mm (18 inches) , hence 135m long - about HALF the size of the Titanic (280m)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubit The distance between thumb .... to the elbow on an average person and measures about 24 digits or 6 palms or 1½ foot. This is about 45 cm or 18 inches.

re quotes from the old testament
I'm assuming we can all mmm - "interpret" these extracts.

reminds me I had a larrikin mate - used to tell me that there were hotrods in Egypt way back when (? ?)
I asked where was his evidence?
"well" he said "Moses was burning up the desert in his Triumph" for a starters!
