Yup, but given current finances it'll never happen.

I answered that hours ago: "I don't know".
http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/forum/?thread=68276&message=867906
I'm not trying to provide the answers, because I don't have them. That's not avoiding the question, it's saying I don't know the answer.
I'm just pointing out that there are other, simpler explanations, which no-one seems prepared to consider as a possibility at all. Everyone (well, not everyone, just a few people) seems fixated with the idea that it must have been rebuilt as otherwise it's not 'correct'.
I don't think I have anything else to contribute to this thread. It's all purely speculative and only one alternative is being allowed.

You did i can see it now, i'd asked it that many times i lost track of that one, hey maybe a farmer wrecked it at the beginning of heavy farming machinery and put it back up the best he could before people realized.

Everythings going though the roof price wise, revolution will certainly follow so some good will come from it, the times are changing for sure, in the short term it'll be hard but hopefully the long term will be a lot better than this shit, if the rich won't share the poor will have to make them.

We’re travelling down around solstice time and can give one or two people a lift if that’ll help.

I don't think that's the case mate, it's just there's another theory being offered and i for one find it very interesting and worthy of discussion. I haven't read the book as i've said so i can't pin my flag to the mast on the whole thing but what i have seen i don't think should be dismissed offhand, if we all immediately label it as silly because it at first appears quite radical we may well miss something important.

Why make that particular point? Your ‘boredom’ comment is meaningless and negative and adds nothing to what is otherwise an informative thread. If you’re going to comment at all (for or against) why not do so in a constructive manner?
