Well, the weather was better, I am reliably informed. But this question bugs me too. Sometimes I think they may have cut the stone to follow the shadows, as it was happening, as it were, and sometimes I don't. It would not have taken long to erect the structure but if it is a planetarium rather than an observatory, built to embody and demonstrate heavenly cycles then the astronomy must have been done first. I have wrestled with this for a long time. Observatory, Planetarium, Tomb, Town Hall Clock, Energy Centre, Geodesic Triangulation Point; my mind is open, it may have been all of these things. The investigation continues.
