Not sure if a plant qualifies as a "creature," but fascinating nonetheless.

We can fix that:
We're going to Ibiza...whoa, whoa, whoa.
We're going to have a party...whoa, whoa, whoa.
By the Mediterranean Sea.
Some of the lyrics I can remember from some cheezy song I heard a lot while living in Germany.

The bad news is that, because of the pollution in the Mediterranean, these plants are disappearing at the rate pf 5% per year. these plants are so weak that they are disappearing at 5% a year but they are positive that this plant is 100,000 years old. Thats a nice round figure BTW..

I'm not surprised. There are trees older than most countries. Still, dang! A hundred thousand years...that would make one really, really old joint.

That is true. Nothing envirowacko about it. Many species are declining due to polution.

Man, them dinosaurs had all the killer grass back then.
Unfortunately, being a "gateway drug", it's what killed 'em all off.

Previous to this find, the largest organism was an underground fungus in Oregon and prior to that it was an Aspen forest in (I believe) Colorado.

It would be nice to get the link to the article from the University or at least the title of the article.

I'm really surprised at the increasing anti-science tone on FR. Someone could post an article describing the discovery of a new Zinc deposit and within 20 articles people would be screaming about the unproven 'metal transport in hot fluid' theory and asking for absolute proof that any atoms exceeded 6000 years in age.
Doesn't anyone understand the basics of how science operates anymore? Sheesh...
