A prof of mine used to describe life as an unending battle against entropy. Seems topical in this thread.
Anyways, none of this is particularly revolutionary. Did anyone think otherwise? It's cool going to places like Angkor Wat and seeing how quickly the environment will take something back over, like the temple with all the trees that was featured in that second Tomb Raider movie, but it's hardly shocking. It's not like most things are built to last even a few hundred years with maintenance anyhow.
