Does this prove that we’ve gone back to Neolithic styles of music?

[popdonnelly]

Think Woodstock.

I suspect this is more of a coincidental feature of the stone circle and the music expert is presuming a little too much. How many similar structures do NOT have interesting acoustic properties? Very few, I suspect.

For example, the “whispering” gallery (galley?) in the dome of St. Paul’s in London is well know for it’s strange acoustic properties, but it was not one of the Christopher Wren’s goals when he designed it.

I think Huddersfield has driven driven the prof to spend too much time in Ibiza.

[potlatch]

Thanks devolve. Sometimes I waste a lot of time on non essential graphics but I have to have something to do, lol.

That’s one with an interesting BG

If a Druid falls in a field

Can anyone here here say “Ouch!”?

[potlatch]

That’s one of my son’s pictures devolve! I cropped and resized it. Spent a lot of time deciding what to put on it.

I was going to put a dancing couple on top of the top stone. My only good dancing couples that would have looked right were way too many frames, lol.

Would loved to have the dancing moon couple up there.

Ah-Haaa! Great photos!

Try a <Table BG

That will cut the filesize way down and it will instantly load

Like I used to do with the pyramid <Table BG graphics

[Grizzled Bear]

Turn it up to 11!

[potlatch]

I considered doing that, but - positioning them exactly where I wanted would have been hard. Even with TP gifs above.

I know

Took me a while to figure out use of /s.gif and parameters for up-down and distance from left side of the table

Guesswork before I figured it out from you viewing it on a PC screen
