Hi! Liz, Not done a "Stoneage Farming course by Alanna Moore", but she came here to do much of her research. We had a very pleasant week showing her and Tom Graves around the activity in this area and measuring the fields of various Tower designs. We also looked at energy centres known to traditional Aboriginals. At my request, Tom dug out the slides he used as a basis of his magnificent drawings in "Needles of Stone". We had several evenings at Dean and Lesley Gentlin's, with shared meals of our best produce and watching Tom's slides. In my trip to England and Cornwall, I visited many of the Megalithic Sites and could take my own measurements of the energy fields. I found them just as Tom stated in the book. I am now able to use this knowledge when examining and recording ancient Aboriginal Sites. I have four days of that this coming week, while we plan a major recording program, which involve bring the Tribal Elders down from the desert and a team of us working over as long as several years to got through the whole project, in amongst other commitments.
Have you read her book on the subject? Gil Liz Davis wrote: > Thanks Lloyd and Tony, appreciate your feed back.
