Keith has recently been posting that his research is not getting the recognition which he thinks it deserves. I’m glad that Keith has come to the realization that nobody is interested with his twisting of reality, lies, deception, and ramblings.
Perhaps if he actually came up with something credible and uniquely his own, then the Oak Island enthusiast community might take notice. Until then, his free association with triangle shaped objects is nothing more than a con to get your investment dollar.

Triangles at right angles etc.
The pillar to Keith’s fantasy is for his translations somehow predicted Birch Island with the visible feature confirming the translation. You can read in the rest of this blog to see the Birch Island feature came first, then he amended his translation to fit his notion, then he amended the treasure trove application.
Regardless, the image below shows that Birch Island is not at right angles with the common vertical line of the Welling Triangle and Birch Island does not align with the base line, so much for that notion/fantasy/illusion.
The image is from government 3D digital elevation data map with software accurate to 9 decimal places for lat/long/
Enjoy.

Foot-in-the-mouth once again
Keith was recently presented a supposed John Dee text concerning the inscribed stone. Just as with an image from the 1930s Crooks film, Keith was quick to jump all over the Dee text, claiming triangles to right angle of other triangles….
As it turns out, the supposed Dee text was actually a script from Keith’s own native Cree language of which Keith did not recognize and has used to promote his very own unique ‘native’ attachment to the inscribed stone…so much for Keith’s translation and interpretive skills.

Ranville Interview on Eerieradio.com
I get many emails from people watching the 'Keith Ranville' side show; but this one is different because it is a radio interview which Keith has been recently bragging about.
So folks, here is what the stationed emailed me.
Hello there,
We had Keith Ranville on our show (EERIE Radio @ www.eerieradio.com) and have since regretted it. I came across your blog and I'm curious to know if you are a researcher of the Oak Island Treasure or not. I've been in contact with (name omitted), and we are trying to get someone on our paranormal radio show that can give us a more factual record of what is going on with the money pit.
Feel free to contact me here or at XXX-XXX-XXXX if you wish to talk more. I appreciate your time!

I can only wonder why the station has come to regret it and what they mean by 'a more factual record'?
Unfortunately I do not do interviews but provided some appropriate theme oriented content and suggest another contact.

The joy of confronting Keith Ranville
Dear Readers,
Exposing Keith Ranville’s scheme and character has been an enjoyable public service. Remembering back to 5 Jan 07, when I first confronted Keith about his scam, his first reaction was to deny knowing me.
If anyone thinks about confronting people like Keith Ranville online, be prepared for lies and slander, as this is the only way his type know how to operate. Truly an immature individual, Keith has now shown himself to be of the gutter. I draw your attention to a posting made by Keith Ranville on his copycat blog
http://sinclair-clan.blogspot.com/
“I know this Sash K. Iman, I met him in jail and on the U.K chat line. He is a known scam artist and I am WARNING people about his estrange history. He is obsessive and is involved in criminal activity, he is crooked to the teeth and untrustworthy he was in the canadian arm forces but got discharge for mental health reasons or got a section 8. he is well known to the police for sexual assault and to criminal organizations aswell. <=> A ANDREW GOUGH AVOIDER http://andrewgough.co.uk/forum/index.php [n4n224ccw Or Sasha K. Iman] has a checkered Past he was discharged from the army for psycological problems. People from the Oakisland U.K forum think's he is some kind of glory hound!and is tarnishing there reputation he has done nothing credible. Andrew Gough’s forum comfirms that he is not accurate and he wont even dare put any of his hear’say gabble on these sites without him being laughed at; they think he is full of beans and delusional? to make it clear to everybody nobody likes him and his insane Frank Burns Section 8 character, only the faceless will vouch for him.”
This is yet again only a sign of Keith Ranville’s true self, an immature person who offers you lies upon lies with no substantiation to anything which he claims. I reiterate, if you care to challenge the likes of Keith Ranville online, be prepared for the above nonsense. IMO, exposing his scam has been worth every word I typed.
BTW what is an Andrew Cough Avoider? lol

Illusion and Dishonesty
Here is another fine example of the illusion and dishonesty displayed by Keith. Below is an extract on Keith’s very own blog of which he says is an official transcript of the Treasure Trove Application.
Taken From http://oakislandmoneypitblogspotcom.blogspot.com/
“To Mr. RatcliffeFrom Mr. Keith RanvilleDate May 5, 2006I hereby apply for treasure trove rights for over the area, located in Mahone bay Lunenburg County

Yours Truly
Keith Ranville,”
Here is page 2 of Keith’s application
http://premium1.uploadit.org/skiman/keith/keithapplicationp2small.JPG
Notice where Keith signed the 5 May 06 application, and then on 29 May 06 below his signature, he amended the application to include Birch Island, then resigned.
Keith leaves out the KEY statement "..amended May29/06" as part of the illusion on his version of the transcript. This proves Keith did not know Birch Island even existed on 5 May 06. This clearly shows he was in search of a better target of opportunity, even after his initial TTL application, as his Skull Island (Big Island) was not too convincing for the general public. Basically, he needed something and quick!
So why would Keith have you think he made application for Birch Island on 5 May 06? Because he says he knew of Birch Island all along and it was top secret, and was only misleading people prior to that!
You can read the remainder of this blog to see how the illusion developed.
FYI, Keith is not in possession of his very own TTL application, otherwise he would post it for people to see. Further, this is typical text manipulation by Keith, as previously shown with angie Zinck article.

Time to debunk Keith's theory
I have already proven without a doubt that Keith’s is running noting but an investment scam though his ‘Business Opportunity’. Please read my entry for 15 March 2007 for further information.
Now that his investment scam is debunked, it is time to debunk his theory. I have never countered Keith’s theory, and I thought it better to wait until Keith admitted to lying about Birch Island. Certainly you might be confused over Keith's theory, so here it is.
Keith thinks the Money Pit’s ‘Inscribed Stone’ allegedly found in 1805 and to have displayed unknown symbols, and in-conjunction with a series of small stones which formed a triangle found on the south shore; somehow contains references which point to (insert location of the month here). These two items are the foundation to his theory.
Interestingly, Keith is making a documentary so he may need some facts.
Fact, Keith says he challenges a translation of the symbols by a Professor James Leitchi of Dalhousie University and dating to the 1860s. The problem is, the professor translated a 37 character code, while Keith translated the 40 character code by Edward Snow (from his book True Tales of Buried Treasure), which is the popular “Forty feet below ten million pounds are buried”. I bet Keith does not even know what the 37 character code of Leitchi said. This is a typical mistake made by those who have not done their research and only shows that Keith is an idiot. This point is actually laughable to anyone who knows of Oak Island.
Think about this...here is Keith boasting of this code which is known to have been modified by a fictional writer in 1952...really where will it end?
Fact, testimony from by Harry W Marshall, said that he was familiar with the stone, as it was on display in his father’s store of Creighton and Marshall. Harry said that in the late 1880s, the stone had no visible symbols that were either painted or scratched into the surface except for the initials JM.
Was the stone for real? Popular opinion going back to the 1860s is for the symbols on the stone to have been faked for the purpose of soliciting investment in another treasure hunt. Yes, there were sceptics of this stone going right back to when it made its first public appearance. It seems that over 150 years later, these ‘symbols’ on the stone are being used for this very same purpose. Again, this shows Keith is nothing more than an idiot.
Fact, as interesting as the triangle of stones might be, they are nothing more than of contemporary times, post 1795 and perhaps from 1897. Fortunately some of those early (1860s) Oak island investors were VERY wealthy men as Halifax had many. One of those investors had the wisdom (and the money) to hire an early photographer during the 1860s and onwards. There are many old photos on glass plate negatives which were taken of the South Shore. These photos show a shoreline and ground elevation much differently than exists today (post 1897). During this period, the mine tailings from the MP and numerous other pits were deposited in the exact location of where the triangle of stones was located. Specifically, photographic evidence exists which shows the operations at Pit 14 with a dump system of elevated rails directly over the triangle’s location. There was so much mine tailing deposited, that it elevated the entire area by approximately 3 ft and to such a degree the area has been permanently altered. Welling found this triangle of stones on the surface and only covered by grass, certainly not buried by the few feet of dirt which were deposited over it. Can this triangle of stones be from the original construction? I think not. This is just another sloppy bit of research by Keith, for the purpose of his scam, and only shows that he is an idiot.
Well folks there you have it. As a note to Keith’s movie guy, I tried to warn you about Keith only fishing for a sucker and he caught you.
Keith, when can we expect a custom 37 character code translation which points to Birch Island?
