How are they going to pay the bill for moving it back? A benefit "Rock Concert"?

Tecumseh carried that rock over to Ohio in "big" bark canoes lashed together many years ago.
It belongs to us Buckeyes.
He knew we would take care of it and not let any "Blue grass" grow around it to hide the writings that his ancestors spent so much time engraving on it.
If you don't believe me, there is a rock in Paducah with Tecumseh's fathers will on it that instructed Tecumseh to move the rock to Ohio.
It's up to you Kentucky people to find the rock in Paducah.
It's legal and witnessed by Geronimo and his many wives.
