Technically, if it’s made out of air conditioning ductwork, it’s not a monolith.

Colorado State University senior Harrison Fraser, of Arvada, visits the mysterious, metallic, reflective monolith anchored by bolts in a concrete base, on a hill northwest of Fort Collins, June 27, 2024. No one seems to know, or is not saying, how it came to be there.

The shiny object appeared last week.

From a distance, it’s a tall, svelte, sparkling glint. You’ll know you’re close when you see a bunch of cars parked on the side of the road behind the Morning Fresh Dairy Farm near the community of Bellvue, and gaggles of people squinting, pointing and guessing what, exactly the rectangular curiosity is supposed to mean — or be.

Silhouetted against the sky, visitors stand next to a mysterious, metallic, reflective monolith anchored by bolts in a concrete base, on a hill northwest of Fort Collins, June 27, 2024. No one seems to know, or is saying, how it came to be there, but it was first noticed about a week ago, and has drawn a steady stream of curious onlookers ever since.

1. a "colorado guidestone?"

i feel scientific about objects like this.

i want to take some measurements in cubits and observe the sunrise at solstice. just to be sure.

never can tell if that "reflective surface" is digitally encoded secrets of the universe?

them? the georgia guidestones were destroyed by one of their terrorist bombers, the case has never been solved and even the stones themselves were removed and pulverized, instead of perhaps being used as "rosetta stones" by future millenia?

2. Another example of everything old becomes new again. A couple of guys in a mom's basement are celebrating ...

... over pizza pockets and two bottles of Coors.

3. Most likely, this rash of "Monolithic" structures is somebody's idea of -

- an art instillation to gain recognition (a la Christo).
