Re: Please sign the petitions against the short tunnel at Stonehenge by tripleransom on Thursday, 26 February 2015

i see we Americans are not the only ones to destroy our heritage in the name of "progress".
I have visited Stonehenge twice and each time it was one of the highlights of my trip to England. The first time was in the late 1960's when the site was still relatively undisturbed. I took a train from London, then a coach and finally walked from the nearest town. I eventually arrived late in the afternoon. At that time, I was able to walk in among the great stones and look down over the Salisbury Plain. I was quite alone there and it was an incredible experience which still gives me goosebumps even after all these years.
By my second visit 10 years later, the roadway and carpark were already intrusive enough to lessen the experience. I shudder to think what this new roadway "improvement" will do to the ambience of this incredibly impressive site.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
