I believe it's Billy Shears who is still alive, not Paul, but I haven't investigated that rabbit hole in depth. :)

Are you from MA? Because that's what the Mainers call us. :)

Eclipses can be described via both models, so they're not proof of a globe. Saying "the planets are spheres, therefore what we're standing on should be also" demonstrates ignorance of the fact that "planet" means "wandering star", and we're not standing on a star.

Alternately, saying what we're standing on should be round because what we see up above us is, would be like professing that pool table are globular because the balls are.

You're right about "secret clues in art" -- but, my initial exposure was Mark Sargent's "Flat Earth Clues" video (2 hours total on YouTube), and the book "Zetetic Astronomy" which describes hundreds of experiments that either show flatness or fail to demonstrate roundness. It's available for free online: http://www.sacred-texts.com/earth/za/za00.htm

Anyway, this is "the truth as I currently know it" and it is of course subject to change as I learn more. And some things are subject to change regardless, like "Berenstein Bears" is now "Berenstain"... (that's the Mandela Effect).
