I think you do most people - probably everyone - here a disservice. Yes, they love to visit the sites when there's no-one there but so what? What evidence do you have that they need to be told this...

"Don't you realise that all of you are "Tourists" to somebody else? It's just a matter of perception.These wonderful stone circles have all been bequeathed to us all by our far-seeing ancestors and therefore should be accessible to and enjoyed by all. To claim exclusivity just because you are 'in tune' with ancient sites is a bit xenophobic/fascist/narrow minded/selfish, (delete where applicable) in the extreme. "

Further evidence that you don't understand people here is this insulting advice:

"Show the world that you are not just a bunch of unkempt, smelly hippie types".

For your information squire we're just a bunch of people interested in the sites, we're happy to have others visit them but we don't want them to deliberately leave them different for the next person. It ain't rocket science.
