Seagrass found in the Meditteranean is possibly 200,000 yrs old?

Old enough to see the rise of Man. Wow!
Jafo.....
Not since BoXXi's birthday... 
Then again, Jafo is showing fossilization around the edges...
Larry King {to obvious} Tony Bennet {nope} Sesame Street, yup that's it.
Something when mankind searches for things like the oldrst living thing I wonder if they look past seeing the newest living thing. 
Yep, having lived in Nevada for 16+ years, I've seen many of these. Some are 2000-5000 years old. As dead as those trees look, they are very much alive. They survive dozens of lightening strikes.
Redwoods in Northern California. Some of them pass the two thousand year mark.
We have a plant down here that is 40,000+ years old, its so old that it has fossilized fragments near the living plant. The Kings Holly is sterile and survives by cloning itself ... so it sort of cheats when it comes down to age. We do have Huon Pine, some of them are 2,000 + years.
Yes....I'm Tasmanian .....;p
Doc... without a doubt. His 1st hands-on medical experience was the removal of Cheops [think Great Pyramids] internal organs in preparation for their interment into the awaiting canopic jars.
Not too far behind would be Jafo.... he was a regular track marshal during Rome's F1 season. The chariots weren't as fast as today's F1s, but the crashes were still spectacular.... and he has Ben Hur's autograph.
I know some dipshit torched a tree in the US recently that was several thousand years old.
I know what I'd do to him.....little fucker deserves to die.
Yeah, but I don't agree with killing people....
.... but then, if he were tied across a busy railroad track, I probably wouldn't feel inclined to save him. 
3000 - odd years makes that tree a more significant entity than some disgruntled fire-bug.
ALL firebugs should be executed outright.
Arson should be a capital crime. I went to school with one.... fortunately for Australia he did us all a favour with heroin.
True.... but to take his life would make us no better than he is at the end of the day.
Simply put, no matter how despicable or low it is, life is life.... but there's nothing wrong with 40 years productive hard labour.... and the firebug will remember every day of it, which is more than he'd do if he were dead/executed.
So, COS, how wos them chariot races? 
and they say drugs are bad
