The Book of the Damned
·
Charles Fort
178
Our
indefinite
acceptance,
by
preponderance
of
three
or
four
groups
of
museum-experts
against
one
person,
is
that
a
stone
bearing
inscriptions
unassimilable
with
any
known
language
upon
this
earth,
is
said
to
have
fallen
from
the
sky.
Another
poor
wretch
of
an
outcast
belonging
here
is
noted
in
the
Scientific
American,
48-261:
that,
of
an
object,
or
a
meteorite,
that
fell
Feb.
16,
1883,
near
Brescia,
Italy,
a
false
report
was
circulated
that
one
of
the
fragments
bore
the
impress
of
a
hand.
That's
all
that
is
findable
by
me
upon
this
mere
gasp
of
a
thing.
Intermediatistically,
my
acceptance
is
that,
though
in
the
course
of
human
history,
there
have
been
some
notable
approximations,
there
never
has
been
a
real
liar:
that
he
could
not
survive
in
intermediateness,
where
everything
merges
away
or
has
its
pseudo-base
in
something
else--would
be
instantly
translated
to
the
Negative
Absolute.
So
my
acceptance
is
that,
though
curtly
dismissed,
there
was
something
to
base
upon
in
this
report;
that
there
were
unusual
markings
upon
this
object.
Of
course
that
is
not
to
jump
to
the
conclusion
that
they
were
cuneiform
characters
that
looked
like
finger-prints.
