Yahoo! News - Headless Bodies Found at Mysterious Mexico Pyramid
Fred Pilot passed this along. He claims it proves that "CIDs have been a failure for at least 1300 years." I guess because the remains suggest there were some acriminous BOD meetings...

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - The discovery of a tomb filled with decapitated bodies suggests Mexico's 2,000 year-old "Pyramid of the Moon" may have been the site of horrifically gory sacrifices, archeologists said on Thursday...After 200 years of excavations, archeologists are still largely in the dark about the origins of the city, which is believed to have housed 200,000 people at its peak in 500 A.D. -- rivaling Shakespeare's London, but a millennium earlier. ...The master-planned city-state collapsed around 700 A.D., an event as mysterious as its formation.

Oh, and one more thing...the Evil Empire encroaches...

It was the site of a modern-day controversy earlier this year when protesters fought and lost a battle to keep the Mexican unit of retail giant Wal-Mart Stores Inc. from building a new store a half-mile away.
