Vikings in the Outback?

Here's something refreshing, and I'm not talking about a nice, tall bottle of Zima. Anna Salleh of ABC Science Online has written an excellent article profiling Australian archaeologist and skeptical hero Denis Gojak's attempts to debunk the ideas of Australian pseudoarchaeologists--namely, that Vikings landed down under in the distant past. Gojak goes into a detailed examination of how myths and legends become accepted as fact by the credulous and uninformed. It's a nice case study in skeptical thinking, which is rare in mainstream news. Too rare. Actually, the fact that this article exists is somewhat suspicious. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I'm beginning to think Denis Gojak is nothing but a stooge of the ancient Viking/big oil/Trilateral conspiracy. Is the boomerang actually a Viking weapon after all?
