Your story is not ridiculous at all. Reading it and Littlestone's reminds me of a good friend whose life was changed by Avebury. He was on a severe self-destruct plummet, but Avebury changed him, turned him around and life was never the same drink sodden agony again. I know of others where stones and a special landscape have taken then into a new life. They have quit their jobs, moved house, divorced...and never regretted it. Spooky - when you consider that stones erected by people thousands of years ago can and do radically change the lives of people living today.
There seems to be something that most of us are searching for (and finding) that goes way beyond the scientific evaluation of the stones as archaeology.
