Kostas , they are irrelevant , because they nothing to do with this thread .Why don't you post the comments that are relevant ,i.e. your questions about the likelihood of the frozen galcial lake and subsequent responses .

Kostas , your blocked post and whether you were behaving in trollish manner has nothing to do with this thread or has any bearing on a putative frozen glacial lake on Salisbury Plain . What would be more appropriate would be to repeat the countless number of times your questioning of the possibility of the lake was shown to be mistaken yet you continued to repeat the claim whilst having nby Geotio - Ancient History
When people spend time providing you with info that is contrary to your fantasy ,you seem unable or unwilling to retain it . Shall I remind you what you were told when you asked a geomorpholgist for his view on the likelihood of your "idiotic frozen lake " ? The fantasy not only fails in that there is obviously no evidence for a lake that couldn't have existed , but eveby Geotio - Ancient History
Yes ,I'm sure . The core belief was the suggestion that there was a was frozen glacial lake in the Stonehenge area when not only is there no evidence for such , the landscape could not possibly have supported such a feature . Science , logic ,common sense all point to the impossibility of the suggestion .by Geotio - Ancient History
One thing for sure is the foliated rhyolite in the debitage did not get there as result of a frozen glacial lake in the area of Stonehenge . Once we have rid of ourselves of that fantasy , the presence of the foliated rhyolite can be discussed . If you are really serious about discussing the debiatge it might be worth considering the presence of other components of the debitage which mayby Geotio - Ancient History
How often do you have to be told that there is not only no evidence for a glacial lake ,frozen or otherwise in the Stonehenge area but there could not possibly be one in that landscape . It has also been explained to you that stratification would be expected in a putative frozen glacial lake not at all what we find in the debiatage . Would you like me to provide quotes from a geomorpholby Geotio - Ancient History
Considering that nobody can know for certain the providence of 32 e ,the two comments are not "very different " . Regardless of the sourceof 32e it does nothing to change the fact that there is absolutely no evidence for your belief about a glacial lake in the area of Stonehenge .There is not a geomorpholgist or glaciologist who would even consider it .Even if there had been a gby Geotio - Ancient History
What I have provided is evidence .Mt Pleasant , has no standing orthostats only the remains of the sarsens. Nobody can possibly know for sure whether 32e came from CFR as it has never been provenanced but the people who did the recent Carn Goedog study and are the experts believe that it probably did e.g. "so I would put a small wager on orthostat 32e being from Rhosyfelin " a diby Geotio - Ancient History
“What scientific evidence can you cite disproving this?” You ask for examples of destroyed monoliths , as is typical of those who pay no attention to any evidence that is contrary to their fantasies you have forgotten that you had already been given the detail to the same question , check Brian's blog for the answer .
