  1. I know they is a coral reef that runs between Macon and Russell counties lots of sea shells and occasionally a sharks tooth

  2. Sure, but not in my lifetime

  3. since we are in a global cooling time now, I must say it will be a thousand or so years before the planet gets that warm, if ever

  4. So true, there are Ancient Cypress Tree Stumps in the Gulf 125+ ft deep.

  5. Anything is possible. Not in this lifetime.

  10. Most people have a poor understanding of great passages of time. All of Alabama was under the ocean from 600 million years ago. Marine fossils can be found from the Cambrian to the Mississippian- except for Devonian, when the water was too deep to support Sun supported life. From the Pennsylvanian era on, all North Alabama was above sea level. If you drive past the intersection of hwy 280 and I-459 look at the exposed rock in the hillside- that was the beach at one time. Wetumpka is the only place on the planet in which a meteor crashed into the shallow sea and now is on land. South Alabama has many fossil whale vertebrae and the state fossil is a whale. Montgomery is the only area where you can find dinosaur bone fossils- because that was the beach at the time they lived. Extreme south Alabama has only been above sea level for a few million years. With the rise of the Appalachians most of the state now will not sink again. But if sea levels rise- all of the low elevation flat land could again fall beneath the waves.

  11. Who knew?? Very interesting!

  12. Earth was created a few thousand years ago. Not even no where near a single million. One day everyone will know that

  13. Climate change has always happened and always will happen. What cannot be agreed upon is whether or not human activity has any effect on climate change.
