Humans have supposedly been on this planet for billions of years...

Not quite. Most ancient known ancestors less than a quarter billion. People as we know them, maybe a few hundred thousand. We've been here as God's creation for a blink of an eye compared to His cosmos.

Paisley Caves isn’t anywhere near Portland. It’s near, well, Paisley. I doubt the animals will come near it. Paisley is in the sane part of the state.

I actually think of that at times when I pick up some random something else along w/ the usual in a doggie bag.

Future archeologists will be really confused as to 21st century rituals involving dog feces, used Kleenex and, say, a beer bottle cap, all nicely preserved together in a blue plastic bag.

“Unknown ceremony.”

They spin some pretty good stories.

If they keep looking they might find the remains of a 14000 year old moccasin with sh*t on it.

Well, sure, if you’re talking about physical distance.

I’m talking about entertainment.

Portland and Paisley are very close in terms of entertainment venues.

The evidence for pre-clovis human presence in the Americas continues to build. Of course, science changes her mind very slowly and only after numerous hissy fits. I was around when Geology finally embraced Continential Drift, long after the evidence was self-evident.

This evidence looks solid, pun not intended. I hope that the lab doesn’t discover evidence of very old goldfish crackers

There is a well known fruit cake bakery in Corsicana, Texas, that ships all over the world. I maintain it hasn’t baked a fruit cake in decades, just recycling returns.
