< Truth is though, one of the world's most widely known scientific facts is that "Druids brought Stonehenge from Wales" > Ey up Nigel. Are you being sarcastic here or what...? Druids? Stone circles? Scientific facts...?

Phew...Soz Nigel. I know it's the consensus-trance myth of the place - just wondered if you'd bought it aswell. Thankfully not. But gotta rush again - another football match to rage with! Cheers - Paul

>On the other hand, humans shifting 4 ton bluestones 150 miles seems less of a big deal than humans shifting 40 ton sarsens 20 miles.< Nicely put :-) Also, the transportation of the bluestones might not be an 'either or' situation - some (or all) may have been pushed by glacial action part of the way.

There is nothing you can say that is so absurd, that hasn't been said by some druid or other.
