Just something I was talking about with the wife this evening. She says that our house is not natural and used the phrase “out in nature”. But lots of animals build nests. And are we not animals just doing the same?

    My thoughts go to things that either don’t decay or decay extremely slowly. If I chunk it out somewhere and it’s still there in 1000 years, it’s manmade. A caveat to this is if it naturally occurs, i.e. radioactive elements

      This feels closer to the solution, but again a mountain is natural, but will be there for 1000 years.

        You can point at a mountain, and at what is not mountain, but you can’t point to where the mountain stops being mountain.
