Craton

[Grogie]

I discovered this interesting word today. It,s '' any part of the earth,s crust which has survived the forces of geological merging and splitting for at least 500 million years.''

[Perry]

But after 500 million years are any of the craton's friends still around to celebrate its status?

[Bailey]

Well, they are but they are pretty tired....
Also except for the occasional alien rock falling on us [and they are also in their dotage] isn't it all the same age as the rest of the Earth, matter is neither created nor destroyed, just altered, so it's all pretty tired.

Cool word, Grogie...

I also learned the word Precambrian after looking up the word.
