Well, you two seem to be taking in your stride something which, if true, would be a very big deal. Stonehenge has no forerunners in the use of mortises and tenons does it? (Apart from thousands of wooden examples of course....) I hope our minimeet colleagues can measure the shape of both to see if they're comparable. But that will have been thought of and done, surely?
