Hardly a coincidence. Every summer solstice, Stonehenge is in the

True though most years orange paint isn't part of Stonehenge at summer
solstice.
The news claimed it was orange cornstarch, and the vandals thought
it would just wash off at the next rainstorm. They apparently did
not want to cause permanent damage.
Conservators though differently, and removed the powder within
hours.
Apparently, The stones bear rare and endangered lichens, and it
was thought that *wet* cornstarch would be bad for them.
pt
When we lived in London in 1973, my brothers and I climbed all over the Stonehenge rocks one weekend. We were just about the only people there. The really amazing thing was the thousands of names cut into them from hundreds of years. We did not add our names.
