I thought that it was the part where you avoid all the questions, run off and make another thread.
Could you explain the presence of these marks on stone work worldwide, from Egyptian Obelisks to the lesser of the Stone Circles in the UK (yep, not just Stone Henge)
There have been some workable suggestions provided as to how the abrasion/tool marks appeared on the rocks, using tech and materials that we know the AE's posessed - could you comment on those?
There is data regarding the cutting of stone with copper and abrasives, could you comment on that?
Could you make a suggestion as to the tool that produced the marks, as well as the potential materials it possibly was made from and how it was possibly powered?

It's a discussion site, not a post and run site James. You are refusing to consider evidence presented by others, while asking that others consider yours.
That's just weak.

You are really meant to discuss your OP with folk, examine evidence and so forth, rather than sticking your fingers in your ears.

Not true. I make my position CLEAR in my opening post and until I see something which changes my position then I see no reason to carry on posting.
So maybe it’s time to move the debate past the ‘is it/isn’t it - are they/aren’t they’ type of paradigm and into the highly speculative ‘who/when and with what’ paradigm. I think we have to speculate wildly about how this work was done because it does not fit into any of the common explanations we been told about.

Is this the part where you repeat the foolish notion that they used stone pounders to pound out the unfinished obelisks in the Aswan quarry?

I don't know what you're asking me, if English isn't your first language, that's fine..are you asking for images of blocks being cutby ancient Egyptians?
I think the quarries themselves are better evidence, they found tools and sleds to move the blocks.
So where are the paintings and carving of the aliens helping them out?

I have to ask but...woudnt using sand and copper leave un even cut marks instead of smooth and straight ones? You know since sand isnt all uniform.

I don't get why they'd carve images of stonemasons using stonemasons' tools but not carve images of alien visitors helping them?! Major failure in logic there

Good question, but in that case we'd also have to ask: isn't it strange that ancient egyptians described almost every aspect of their daily life on almost every free space they could find using a plethora of glyhps and artwork standing in such a stark contrast to the fine cut megaliths?
And then they don't dedicate a single glyph to the construction of the pyramids, a truly genuine feat that's still marvelled at by modern humans without us having figured out how it was done? I think this ought to be taken into account when trying to solve the equation ...
