...Angie, yay! That's great! Isn't it neat?<br /><br />Wicked, thank YOU!<br /><br />Dani, me, too. I bet they know a heckuva' lot more than the interwebs do about it.<br /><br />Jagoda, I like how you said that. Yes, they must have been fierce. And determined.<br /><br />Jo, yes! And many other monoliths and such.<br /><br />Rachel, it's sad how much is lost to history, isn't it? You'd think someone would know something.<br /><br />Stratoz, I like that, too.<br /><br />Dishit, have you visited it?<br /><br />Jak, we could definitely use it. It would solve a lot of problems.Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-21349508982876908192013-05-11T00:32:44.673-06:002013-05-11T00:32:44.673-06:00Schell, me, too!

They have so much to say.<br /><br />Lucy, "I" is HARD to find something for! Every year. <br /><br />Bridget, it would be worthwhile to figure it out again.<br /><br />Susan, for this one, I hope so. At least as far as developing iron in that way.<br /><br />Mark, they should!<br /><br />Li, that's exactly it. I want to know, but I don't want to know! But I do!<br /><br />Kristen, I agree. Look at the structure world-wide that we can't figure out how to build. Not only that, but I've heard lately that our rocket scientists can't actually figure out how to do the things that the original ones did.<br /><br />Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-66102290409116860492013-05-11T00:24:32.205-06:002013-05-11T00:24:32.205-06:00Sandy, I think that's true a lot of the time. ...Sandy, I think that's true a lot of the time. Look how long appliances last now, when they used to last for ages.<br /><br />Katie, you'd think with all this technology we would be able to figure it out!<br /><br />Mary, I completely agree.<br /><br />Myrite, I'd love to visit there.<br /><br />Marcy, I'm sure it's possible. This is one mystery it would be worth solving.<br /><br />Tina, I had a customer by the last name of Gupta. It's not uncommon. He was super nice.<br /><br />Sue, thank you, I enjoyed researching them!<br /><br />Elliot, that is interesting, isn't it? Here I thought there wasn't much we couldn't translate. Wrong!<br /><br />D.G., that's a good point. I'm sure many such skills have been lost through time. Some have probably been lost and rediscovered.<br /><br />Shannon, I agree. It would be good if we could discover the secret.Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646134662936278718.post-58747047308739784732013-05-03T03:20:26.085-06:002013-05-03T03:20:26.085-06:00Hmm This is one post I missed as I was able to fol...Hmm This is one post I missed as I was able to follow along even >.< and another mystery I never knew about.<br /><br />It is a shame if the process of creation is what holds the monument in its excellent condition.

While the science behind the lack of rust is quite incredible, the part that amazes me the most is that no one knows what it says.
