Personaly, I don't think that the glaciation theory should be judged on whether large stone can be or have been moved by Human effect.

The question is, could they have been moved by glaciation? I haven't read anything that shows not so far. Probability? difficult to say really, but can't see any reason to dismiss the idea.

To ignore the possibility of glaciation is as daft as to ignoring human effort /ingenuity . Unfortunately the Williams etc paper showed that the proponents of glaciation have ignored or were unaware of the examples of effort /ingenuity in Britain .
I must admit to being open minded about the transportation of the Blue Stones In the fact that I'm not really completely 'sold' on any of the theories.

same here Tony but Brians book raises some interesting points that I had never considered before.
Like why so many bluestones were from different quarries and why some of them are considerd rubbish stones.
I'll lend you my copy of the book, no one here seems to want to read it.
it's a bit like the crop circle Believers eh?
