	I have a question dealing with Celtic mattters for all of you.

	My roommate is curious about the Druids.  Other than saying,
	'They built Stongehenge, and so they obviously had it together
	mathematically and astronomically', I can't come up with much.

		How much is known about this group of people?
		What were they like?
		What was the basis for their religion?
		Are there people today who practice this religion, or
			a closely-related one?
		What area and time did they inhabit?
		Is there any other development they are known for?

	Thanks a lot,
