I found additional information at:
http://www.stonefoundation.org/symposiums/2010symposium/2010.html# which includes a video documentary. It runs about 20 minutes or so, but I really, really think I'm going to have to hop off the 101 and have a look when I go down to LA to see James at the end of the month.

Rich would've loved this. I remember when NOVA was doing a series of programs we dubbed "Moving Really Big Rocks", (it was actually "Secrets of Lost Empires,"), with obelisks and trebuchets and Easter Island heads.....
