We’ll never find Atlantis. That’s why we keep looking

We’ll never find Atlantis. That’s why we keep looking. - Slate Magazine: "This fall, Britain will discover Atlantis. The makers of the television show Merlin are turning the age-old tale of a submerged city into a series (it will be called, unsurprisingly, Atlantis), which is slated to air in the United States in late 2013.

The destruction of Atlantis, 1928.

But this is only the latest in a long search to find Atlantis. The allegedly “lost” empire has had a hold on us for centuries. How? And, for that matter, why do people keep trying to find it?"
