>Reaction: The wreckage is believed to be about 4,500 meters (15,000 feet) deep, amid underwater mountains and mixed in with tons of sea trash. Wow that's almost 3 miles deep.

What will the futurites think when they find the stuff in the desert when the oceans are gone? Will they make a diarama or a mural or a model to show the children what the earth looked like then/now? Will they stand at the edge of the lake/river that is all that is left of the Mariana Trench, and say "no way" like my kids did when we stood in the Painted Desert and stared at the posters on the wall...
Will they gape at the bones of the long-dead whales & never know the echoing call of the sea's soul?
Will people survive to see the earth dry up like Mars? Are there artifacts/trash/rubble burried under the tons of sand that that planet has become? And if so, what are we to make of it?

Bluntly put them of the future who will be forced to evolve or wear oxygen breathing apparatus' will be thinking, teaching and saying; "What the fuck were they thinking back then?"
I was thinking about the movie w/ Gary Senise where they go to Mars... find that Martians had "seeded" earth & the rest of the galaxy... Will we leave that kind of legacy to the future? Unfortunately I think you have it right...
But there is also a question of how many times this planet (or any other) has risen/fallen/risen/fallen... will the people of the future "forget" our technology - or will they pay attention to the hard lessons we are learning now?
