I thought it was Xenu?

And boy does scientology deserve this. It is simply a money making scheme.

Zatran did it to kill Xenu.  I think...

and we're all Xenu... or something... and we're going to eventually kick Zartrans ass... or something.

I dunno.  It's all like a bad science fiction thing.

Also incedently... the "Dark Ages" weren't as Dark as people originally thought.

Among historians actually the term "Dark Ages" is seen as insulting now.

It's still applicable, i think, if we're just referring to Western Europe (e.g., of the former West Roman Empire). The collapse in order there was complete and rather shocking, at least until the ascent of Charlemagne although the Byzantine Empire flourished, and that was also led up to the heyday of the Muslim World.

Not really.

The only thing that was really that "Dark" was the lack of historical record.

The actual collapse of technology and science really didn't happen as people imagined in europe.

The only use for the term "Dark" agres was to mean there weren't a lot of historical records about them... except there is now more or less.  We know a lot about that era.
