Actually, I was pointing out that the possibilities are rather limited, since all of them involve a select few geologic processes slightly mitigated by human activities, none of them involving E.T.

You say that you've been looking for a long time for information on that mountain. Have you tried contacting any geology departments in Peru? It seems to me (and I could be wrong) that you've been asking others to do your homework for you. Here are a few lists of Peruvian universities:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_uni...es_in_Peru

http://www.4icu.org/pe/

i haven't been asking others to do homework for me at all. i was told by summerqueen to contact you, because you're the resident expert on geology. if you're going to get snotty whenever someone asks you for help then why respond at all? in my opinion after researching mesas and the like the mountain i viewed did not look like it was one *correction*/ did not look like ones which i have seen. but then again, I AM NOT A GEOLOGIST. i am not going to devote every second of my life trying to find the information to this mountain, and i'm not going to be contacting people in peru until i go there some point in my life. which as i've already mentioned i will be doing.
i'm only 18 years old so as you may have guessed i haven't had as much time like yourself to be studying in depth geology and the area around nazca. this is why i came to someone like yourself because you have the benefit of experience and knowledge, yet you seem more intent on dismissing someone like me who 'has not done his homework' than showing some genuine attitude towards helping.

i am sorry if i took what you said out of context btw, that was not the intent.

Dude, from what I've seen from the replies here, I appear to be the ONLY one offering advice on how to find the information you are looking for. My advice would be to not burn your bridges at least bnefore you've crossed them. You don't have to go to Peru to find the information you seek. All you need to is contact the people with the information you seek. The people with that information are going to be at one of the universities listed in those links. If I was trying to find out information on that mountain, that's where I'd start (I would actually start in my local university library, then try to contact someone at one of those universities).

I understand that you are young (I'm 52 with 20 years experience as a geologist). I'm not putting you down for lack of experience. We all have to start somewhere. In the mean time, something you can do that will help you to think abut these things in a more critical light would be to read the information at the following web site. It will help you to find flaws in your own arguments as well as in those of others, so you can start to hone your reasoning skills. If you decide to go to college, knowing how to think critically will be a huge asset.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
