Can I just suggest something? The best way to educate people isn't usually to start posts insulting them - however justified the insult might be. To be honest, I'm starting to find the sneering tone that sometimes appears on this forum a bit off-putting. It's getting decidedly cliquey, which is a shame.

"Clear all habitation/buildings/roads/artificial lighting etc etc etc from sight/near distance of the Temple complex. The area to be grazed by sheep."
Sounds a bit like what they would like to be doing at stonehenge?


(And Doktoratomik, isn't your post a bit of a paradox? I think your words are harsher than Kammer's??!)

I don't see an insult. Surely people can express their point of view forcefully as along as they are civil?

I take your point Dok, but I don't think clearing a community for the sake of outsiders is a very friendly suggestion either. The local people at Callanish already have to endure some pretty strange visitors, and I personally feel that some sensitivity towards their community is a good idea. They tolerate us lot, so we should at the very least do the same in return.

I really don't want to put anyone off posting on this forum, but at the same time there's a lot of scope for us to debate this kind of thing. Let's debate...
