Who ever put that forward at the Neolithic conferance wants to try pulling a 40 ton sarsen uphill, He's probably an over-educated prat who has never done a day's hard work in his life.

The whole point of "stone shifting" is not to prove how it was done, but how it may have been possible. I still believe dragging a forty-ton stone 20 miles across virgin countryside is simply impossible.

When the archeaologists start pulling on ropes themselves instead of directing operations they may begin to understand.
