Now, since glaciers aren't _just_ ice, I'd say it's safe to say that there were probably a bunch of gigantic boulders caught up in the ice flow, which would have gone straight to the lake bed when the glacier melted. It's possible that a boulder that took this ride could have had carvings on it before it joined the glacier, but any carvings should have been obliterated by the glacial ice flow.
So, the reason this was announced to little fanfare was because it is completely illogical to believe that a true stonehenge-like arrangement of stones would have survived to end up on the lake bed. It also wouldn't make a lot of sense that people with no interaction with the druids would have erected something that appears to have been unique to their culture.

I don't see anything special about it. Somebody on one of the sites mentioned something about it being a calendar, but I don't buy it.

Has more than a year passed since you joined Florida in nearly fucking up a presidential election? Has the auto industry acknowledged the sort of undeniable ubiquity of the 21st century yet? Are Kid Rock and the Nuge dead yet?
