I figure we’ll probably continue to find evidence of lost, off-shore civilizations.
People today are no smarter than your average human way back in the day. We are inclined toward civilization by our social drives.
And our current civilization is still young, and has managed to flourish in a period of relative geological stability. But what happened to our predecessors can also happen to us, and we have to advance our technology to the point where we can adapt to whatever our ever changing planet throws at us.
(Climate change is normal. Just ask the mammoths.)
“a bathroom or a temple”
If it was a good bathroom with a flush toilet and exhaust fan working in
7500 B.C., that would as good as a temple for me!
What’s that old saying...”any technology, sufficiently advanced, is magic.”
Hmmmm......bathroom, temple.....temple, bathroom.
Yeah, I make that mistake all the time, too.
That's not pottery, that's an SAP manual.

It is obvious that the Tigris and Euphrates Company outsourced the civilization project to India. This was forgotten because the Customer Service Department in India was almost completely unintelligible,
LOL.
This article has been on Free Republic almost as long as you.
Are you quite sure? The "Paleolithic Railroad Tracks on Malta" story makes an appearance about this time of year, doesn't it?
The one I really miss is the "Human Footprint Found Next to Dinosaur Track in Texas Creekbed" story.
Yes. This article was posted on 1-16-2001.
I don't do that one. This may interest you though:

The “Paleolithic Railroad Tracks on Malta” story must have been Willie Green’s.
