oh aye, don't get me wrong :o) If it weren't for Burl I think just about
every stonehunter and megalithic website would not have had the start
they have had. I'm not dissing the Godfather of Stone Hunting, I suppose
you could call him. With a work of any reasonable hugeness, errors
become more likely - and if in fact a site *is* there when it was said
it isn't, all the better. When minimal effort is required to check, I'm
all for taking a look in person.
There's only one thing better than having multiple browsers and maps
open, highlighters, GPS data, and guidebooks around your feet, and
that's being *out there* employing all the preparation.
Excitedly,
Tim.
