Hi friend of PRX,

Ancient history was turned on its head this week when the latest version of Google Earth revealed the existence of the missing city of PRX on the ocean floor.

Researchers say that when Atlantis disappeared, PRX was rumored to have risen in its place. “Now we have some proof!” said oceanographer Robert Ballard.

Sounds good to me!
