Huh.
Turns out that there's a great mountain range in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Judging on this image, it would've probably been flooded in the final glacial retreat ~10 000 years ago. Of course, the area was probably completely uninhabited: the earliest boat was found in Holland from around 6000 years before our era (1000 Inventions and Discoveries by Roger Bridgman and the Smithsonian), and no links between this range and the continents: the ocean surrounding it is too deep. There's also a lot of similar ridges in all the oceans, meaning that it's purely coincidental that there was a now-flooded island ridge that existed in the time Plato mentioned. I'm thinking of making some more parody, kind of like that [http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/RationalWiki:Saloon_bar/Archive141#Idea.21_Sparkle_sparkle. idea I'm working on] with homotoxicology. Yeah, I have a lot of free time. How else do you think I'm always able to be on here? The Heidelberg Kid (talk) 03:32, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
 * It's too deep. In some places even now (like Iceland) it does reach above sea level, but there would only be a little more of that (not much) during the last ice age. See HERE and HERE. Peter Monomorium antarcticum 03:36, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
