Is that so surprising? I thought it was just the best preserved and biggest one.

I don't think it is common knowledge.

So now that stonehenge is not needed anymore, let's tear it down and build something useful instead.

Like a UFO landing site.

I thought it already was a UFO landing site.

It is, this is just diversion tactics to further us from the truth. It's a known tactic.

Yep! THEY think we're stupid like the sheeple. But we aren't.

No, I mean it needs to be more inviting. Maybe add a tiki bar or something, broadcast some kind of universal code signifying 'free beer', I'm sure that'll bring some in.

High rise residential building? /s

Certainly not. Luxury appartments make much more sense, economically.

Funny you mention that, at one point they were trying to build a highway next to it...

They were/are trying to build a tunnel next to it because drivers keep slowing down on the highway to look at Stonehenge
