Even though I no longer live in England, where I was born, raised and educated, I am still stunned by the utter disregard, not only the historical and world renown significance of Stonehenge, but it's importance to the nation and to the world. It represents to me that which is English and a part of our history that encompasses the historical, the mythical, the mystical and indeed, the very essence of a time in which England and the people in it showed they too could do wonderful and magical things. Now, in a most terrible, indeed, a most horrible contrast, we see examples of stupidity, poor planning, commercial insanity all bundled into an idiotic commercial enterprise being portrayed by the efforts of so-called modern man.
May the spirits of a thousand generations who made England as great as she was, forgive them - for I doubt that I can. What will be the next icon to suffer? Will the sacred "White Cliffs of Dover" be painted black or Big Ben replaced by a sun dial??
