Stone-rowing is alive and well thank you very much, as are some of my other innovations, like providing the lever operators with a working platforms that rises in line with the stone when using a crib to elevate a lintel stone. And rowing the raised lintel into position using working platforms.

Using the support logs to provide shoring when levering up a stone from horizontal to vertical. Intial experiment successfully tested last year in America where I was warmly welcomed and entertained for 14 days all expences paid.

Only this week did I receive mail from a Russian Archaeologist asking permission to quote from my old website in a book he is writing.

Without abandoning stone-rowing I am at the same time hoping to test a new method of transport I have devised. Needless to say it won't involve brute force.

I could go on but you'll only ignore what I have to say.
