The message from "'Mike'" contains these words:

Have you seen the speeded up animated picture of a Motorway
which has been closed and left to nature for about 250 years I think it
is?


They had Motorways 250 years ago! Sheesh, I'd never have believed that
there were enough horses, carts and stagecoaches to warrant it!

With the Earth being a reputed 36,000 Million years old, do you seriously
believe that we of 2007, are the most advanced human beings which have
blessed the surface?

There is a poster in the Roman Villa at Brading here on the Isle of Wight
which shows how the Roman Villa, which was the centre of a very prosperous
community with farms, factories and a harbour in the very early part of the
AD Century, ran into decay and was eventually covered 'by nature and natural
causes' until it was rediscovered in the late 19th century,.nearly 2000
years later.

And do you not think that there is quite likely to be far more intelligent
life out there in space? Do you honestly believe that 'we' are far more
clever than 'anything else'?
