It is neat that they are scrambling to capture as much information from the site as they can for as long as they can. The images certainly light up the imagination......and weave stories of history......

But it does make me sad that SOMEONE can't figure out how to save this site. Progress has to stop making the past disappear! There are so few sites like this in the world. To cover it up for a freeway is just wrong.
