lol. Did i just detect what i think i just detected?
TMA = Photos, map and parking instructions.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
But I get the impression some think it's the core of the nucleus at the centre of the beating heart of prehistoric archaeology.
If it wasn't for the occasional decent forum post it'd be a sodding flickr group.
Were getting the sky pics, it can't be too long now before macros of flowers and insects (sat on the stones, naturally)

If you don't think TMA is an online archaeological nucleus for ordinary folk rather than arcane highbrow study, which website do you think is better? I think the former of the two is laudable and absolutely necessary, the bedrock on which the latter should stand and be related to, and we should be grateful to Mr Cope.

Inspired by "Arrival" I have a feeling that some of the "ancestors" had been contacted and advised to stick up megaliths with some consideration for their descendant's ( c. 1900- 2100 AD ) technology and ocularcentrism .

If you got out a bit more you'd know what the truth really is out in the field.
Here's an idea - I wonder if we could organise the burying of some peoples SLRs and then see if a dowser can find them.

Indeed, but like crop circles, dowsing and, of course, gef the mongoose, I absolutely love the "frisson" that these things generate, the possibilities, the hope, even.
When to stop laughing is indeed the problem.
If we do find out about everything when we slip off the coil, let's hope they have some sympathy with us.
