We had to move some pieces of tombstones....HEAVY!! We slid them on a Teflon Cookie sheet...put a rope through the little hole...and easily slid the stones to where we wanted them.

I believe the guy who built the Coral Castle in Fla use a lot of the same ideas in 1923. He did this without the aid of computers for calculations.

Looks like a post for the Gods, Glyphs, and something-else ping list I see floating around these parts.

OK, great, so some yard birds designed perfectly balanced and shaped heavy objects that can be rocked back and forth by a couple of snowflakes and be designed to interlock to form a larger structure.

Now show me exactly how Stonehenge, the pyramids and other humongous structures that never used perfectly balanced perfectly shaped objects were built?

Or, tell me how the modern designed junk described in the article would have been moved by ancient man from the quarry over sand, dirt, and mud to the construction sight.

Or is there a modern practical purpose to all of this, so when the left’s New Green Deal is enacted we can build stupid buildings with this crap without cranes, payloaders and other heavy equipment?

Or did someone get a huge tax payer funded grant to create more junk science?

NOT IMPRESSED!

They remain trapped in a never ending quest, trying to apply human abilities to other worldly constructors.

This is the lasted trend on how Stonehenge and Easter Island statues were constructed. A rounded bottom helps with center of gravity and movability. The Easter Island statues have a rounded bottom so, like Weebles, they can be moved easily by wobbling them along. Same with the Stonehenge pillars. Standing the pillars upright, it’s thought they were in part wobbled upright.

LEGOS is repotedly interested in a giant “castle” joint venture.
