| Be that as it may | как бы там ни было (Well, be that as it may, I'm not about to sign this. • Suggesting that the strange saga of the mystery monoliths is far from over, a third such object has now been found atop a mountain in California. The piece, which was reportedly discovered on Wednesday morning by hikers on Pine Mountain in the city of Atascadero, appears nearly identical to object in Utah which sparked what might best be called the 'monolith madness' that has unfolded over the last two weeks here in the United States and, oddly enough, Romania. As with the previous pair of found objects, the origin and purpose of the California piece are unknown. Be that as it may, the discovery of a third monolith has, understandably, led to speculation that the objects are part of a some kind of marketing stunt.  coasttocoastam.com ART Vancouver) |
