I love how you say that so matter-of-factly.

I'm pretty sure this was intended to be posed to Shroomism.

However, I think "era" would have been a better word choice to clarify his point.

For arguments sake lets say our entire civilization was wiped out tomorrow. What would be left of it in 1,000, 10,000, 100,000 or beyond? Past about 10,000 years I don't think much would be left. Maybe a few damns or some evidence of large structures but that would be about it. I think 100,000 years there would be almost no evidence. Lets say the earth has been stable enough to support an advanced civilization for 500 million years. 500 million divided by 100,000 equals 5,000. So theoretically speaking there has been enough time for 5,000 separate civilizations to have existed and yet left almost no evidence. I know my numbers are a stretch but I am just trying to point out what is possible. Maybe the number isn't 5,000 but at least a couple dozen. Now that seems entirely possible.

Half life of plutonium, a man made element... 30,000 years, aprox
Half life of plastic, a man made polymer... a long time, millions of years
Half life of fossilized bones... a long time, millions of years
Half life of foot prints on the moon... a long time, forever?

> I know my numbers are a stretch but I am just trying to point out what is possible.

Your numbers are a bit more than a stretch, they are completely wrong.

this is perhaps the most speculative statement I have ever read on the shroomery. and that's quite an accomplishment

Okay I know I was stretching a bit... just to show you what could actually be possible. It was only designed to make you think about possibilities.
