  • POV? Nonsense? possible vanity/advertising? - Fennec 17:04, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete - patent nonsense - article used just for advert - Tεxτurε 17:10, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • If this is actually a "coherent" new agey type concept, maybe there's a way to rescue it. Right now though, it's nothing but a crackpot article full of gibberish. Delete unless there is something academic that can be said about it. Postdlf 5:09 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • There is a bunch of new-agey concepts about the powers of pyramids that could be here. Current concept is someone's own personal bs, however. —Morven 17:17, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Send to cleanup. Subject is valid and notable. Mkweise 17:22, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    • I've replaced the original content with a proper stub. Keep as such; most of you may not be old enough to remember, but this was a notable fad back in the acid-drenched '70s. Mkweise
  • It's loony but I've heard of it before. Cleanup, not delete. Isomorphic 23:31, 6 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • It's rubbish but then this sort of rubbish is believed by new age loonies, which (unfortunately) justifies its retention. Should have someone pointing out it's bunkum though. Dbiv 00:47, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    • I say that determination can safely be left up to the reader. Mkweise 01:00, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. The delete votes were for a previous version; the current stub is quite a good start for an article on this real book and movement. Jgm 02:24, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. As I recall, some guy was actually granted a patent for a pyramid shaped holder which kept razors sharp longer. It also performed cold fusion, of course, but that's another story. Meelar 03:08, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep new version. Fennec 04:39, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Cribcage 04:50, 7 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep new stub -- Cyrius|&#9998 17:03, Apr 7, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. I can't remember which one, but there was a sitcom in which one of the characters tried to harness Pyramid power, to great comic effect... now it's killing me... - DropDeadGorgias (talk) 20:54, Apr 7, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, but someone more a hockey fan than me should add the anecdote about Red Kelly's mid-seventies Toronto Maple Leafs Stanley Cup game (s?). He apparently had a pyramid in the dressing room, I'm guessing so his players wouldn't rot during the game. Or maybe so they'd play sharper. I dunno. Denni 23:36, 2004 Apr 7 (UTC)
  • Keep, keep new stub and encourage expansion.
  • Keep, as a warning of the 1970s were really like. -- Decumanus | Talk 20:57, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)
    • I think an article on pet rocks would better serve that purpose :-). Mkweise 22:24, 10 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Good topic. Always going to be a risk as there are still believers around. Now a good article IMO, but others would say it just shares my POV. Andrewa 16:54, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)
