Road Trip to Turkey?

I just came across a bizarre crossing of science and religion. Apparently, Mount Ararat, a mountain in eastern Turkey, is believed by biblical literalists to be the resting place of Noah's Ark. In religious circles, it is referred to as the Ararat anomaly.

A recent story on CNN has more people talking about the legitimacy, including PZ Myers, who fundamentally disagrees with the expeditions. I'm definitely in favor of his view, since the photographs that they've been examining remind me of the face on Mars, bigfoot, and flying saucer photographs.

Regardless, I think we should take our own trip to Mt Ararat. Maybe we can get the fees committee to fund our expedition??
