Your statement is the height of arrogance. We're a speck of dust in the stretch of time and you proclaim us the pinnacle of intelligent civilization in the universe.

Really? When exactly did I say that?

I do stand by the statement I actually made (as opposed to the one you helpfully made up for me) -- assuming that because ancient excavations are large in scale, they must have been done by "a race of giants" is silly.
