I see. So, if you don't know that I know, then you post, but if you DO know that I know, then I know the post. But if I know that you know I know, I won't know until I read the post that you know. But if I DON'T know that you know I know, I can read or not read the post, and you'll never know.

Got it.

I bet that even after all these years that the egyptians still want it back.

Cleopatra's needle in Central Park

Something new every day.

"Needle" Um I think she liked them bigger than a "needle".

The point of this is to demonstrate human behavior. The church hid behind morality but incorporated an icon from a mentally ill sicko. Humans use religion as an excuse to gain power. Thus the reason for the cross being on top of the Obelisk.

Caligula did move it to Rome but not to the spot it currently occupies. That was done by some pope in the renaissance.
