Shouldn’t it be bigger?
I think that relatively, it is…
The fact that two built a 60% model means that 1 Texan could build a 30% Stonehenge and thus would only take 10 to make a 300% size one.
So really, even efficiency is bigger in Texas.
But then you might want to take into account how many pagans it took to build Stonehenge, material used and availability, tools, etc.
Also, snacks. Availability and selection of snacks to eat at break can make/break a construction project. I’m guessing that modern day Texans have way better snacks than they did in ancient english times.
I’m willing to bet that it was more than 3.33 pagans if you normalize for tools… like 1 power drill = 10 pagans or something…
but yea, the snack power ratio would be hard to calculate. the modern day snacks are just unstoppable.
Thank you, subtle references to the Tap are what make my day.
Copycats.
I know, it even looks fake. In a few hundred years it might pass for a decent reconstruction but right now it’s laughable.
Ever wonder where the term copycat came from? Are cats notorious mimics and I’ve just missed it?
Am I the only one that needed visual proof?

Yes.
Nonbeliever.
Seriously. I was content with just talking about snacks with Jon.
Plus, I’ve been to the real Stonehenge when MikeD and I were in London. You’re not missing much if you haven’t been yet.
well, santa fe, nm has Fridgehenge
Well that’s original. I like how they’ve taken recycling to the next level.
Carhenge is in Nebraska.
Waste not, want not.
Not as good as Fridgehenge, but still someone was being creative.
