(8 posts)31. I said "civilization"
Last edited Tue Aug 7, 2012, 05:48 AM - Edit history (2)
I said "civilization" not "humans". Civilization usually refers to sedentarization or establishment of permanent habitations, cities or city-states by your anthropologists. This is the point at which widespread cooperation must begin to be learnt.
We observed sedentarization occurring approximately 12 to 14 centuries ago on Earth.
I am a little confused. You first said human civilization began 12,000 to 14,000 years ago on Earth. Then that sedentarization began 12 to 14 centuries ago. 12 to 14 centuries seems closer to 1,200 to 1,400 years.
Or did you mean millennia rather than centuries?

Fire can also bring down bridges, but I think they still prefer to use jackhammers and equipment....

Since WTC7 severely damaged the neighboring buildings when it collapsed, I doubt this will catch on.

I respect emigrants who take the time to speak our language, as we're monolingual in the USA.

This is fascinating and I consider myself lucky to be able to question a real space alien.

WTC7 fell in silence... I saw a video of the collapse at a lecture given by a NIST scientist...
