Lo!
Lo! was the third published nonfiction work of the author Charles Fort (first edition 1931). In it he details a wide range of unusual phenomena. In the final chapter of the book he proposes a new cosmology that the earth is stationary in space and surrounded by a solid shell which is (in the book's final words) ".. not unthinkably far away."
Overview
Of Fort's four books, this volume deals most frequently and scathingly with astronomy (continuing from his previous book New Lands). The book also deals extensively with other subjects, including paranormal phenomena (see parapsychology), which was explored in his first book, The Book of the Damned. Fort is widely credited to have coined the now-popular term teleportation in this book, and here he ties his previous statements on what he referred to as the Super-Sargasso Sea into his beliefs on teleportation. He would later expand this theory to include purported mental and psychic phenomena in his fourth and final book, Wild Talents.
It takes its derisive title from what he regarded as the tendency of astronomers to make positivistic, overly precise, and premature announcements of celestial events and discoveries. Fort portrays them as quack prophets, sententiously pointing towards the skies and saying "Lo!" (hence the book's title)—inaccurately, as events turn out.

Operator The Line Is Dead
by: Jason LoI guess i never wanted this
Another 'ever after' kiss... Oh
Operator, the line is dead
Oh no, it's only me and all the walls inside my head
And for the record I was lost
With only one road I could never cross
And that's the road that takes me here
Oh no, not again
This is where it started
I need you, I'm for you
You threw me, I caught you
Don't leave me and say that you want to find a way back
Believe me, I followed all you said... Oh
Operator, the line is dead
How come you never look away
Everybody bought but I paid
You're not the one who left me here
Oh no, that was me and all the things I wanted
But now I find you different
You broke up all the walls in my head
Please don't go, let me
Need you, I want you
You know that I found you
Don't leave me and say that you want to find a way back
Believe me, I followed all you said... Oh
Operator, the line is dead
I guess i never wanted this
Another 'ever after' kiss... Oh
Operator, the line is dead
Oh no, it's only me and all the walls inside my head
I need you, I'm for you
You threw me, I caught you
Don't leave me and say that you want to find a way back
Believe me, I followed all you said... Oh
Operator, the line is dead
I need you, I'm for you (All you've said)
You threw me, I caught you (All you've said)
Don't leave me and say that you want
To find a way back (All you said)
Believe me, I followed all you said... Oh
