#7 Saw the headline and immediately thought of binny and the doc holed up in a cave in Afghan/Paki-Waki border area. I then noticed you did say "human" and "civilization," and dismissed the thought altogether.

#8 Apparently Pravda (which means Truth) is trying to give The New Republic a run for its money when it comes to what we non-journos call "making stuff up". And let's face it - other than a molten nickel-iron core, there is no reason people could not live at the center of the earth. As long as they had a place to buy groceries and stuff.

#11 There's dinosaurs too. An'...an'...elfs, an' Sumerians, an' unicorns! And Dan Rather is their Queen.

Actually, it sounds like the beginning of The Mole People, where Prof. Baxter explains all the nutty theories about civilizations inside the Earth.

Peanut nostrils happy clams!

#12 And they live without sunlight, the ability to grow plants, recycle their atmosphere and can bathe in molten rock.

Their head is hollow, we should drill holes in it, to let in air so at least they could then rise to the level of airhead.

#13 If they look anything like that Russian girl band Slivki, then I'm calling Virgin right now to make a reservation whenever Branson starts service to the "etherworld".

#14 PRAVDA has become the hyper-PCorrect post-USSR/Cold War Russian organ for saving the Russian Way including Russian-specific Communism- Globalism + of course criticizing the USA-West, however indirectly or subtledly.

#15 They act like this is something new. It's called Hell and it has a lot of comrads living (if you can call it that) there.
