Ditto on Gary's sentiments.
I would be highly interested in an equally detailed run down of the cultural influences of Atlantis that survive today. Some examples / tidbits I've noticed (that may or may not be painfully obvious to most here):
1) The flood 'myth' that is present in many geographically separate civilization's backgrounds (IE the flood in the Bible).
2) Halloween / day of the dead holiday present in many geographically separate civilizations, most within 3 days (Oct 31st - Nov 2nd). Corresponds with the fall of Atlantis.
Those are just two of the most obvious examples; I'm sure there are other traditions that survived or were at least heavily influenced by Atlantis. The same goes for language (ie the Atlantic ocean).
