hmmm .. i just flicked through my bio text book and a found info and a picture of a fungal hyphae and spores that are dated around 460 million years old :P
but even then, why do you need a fossil?.. fungi evolve as a species like everything else. they weren't always a fungus. heard of evolution and common ancestry ?
seriously i don't know why/where people come up with some of these ideas.. cos i hear about similiar crap from certain "cosmic" people i know also.
i mean ok.. it might be fun or spiritual or whatever to think of these things.. but seriously some of it is so far out retarded... especially when people actually start believing it lol

 All genetic evidence indicates fungi evolved on this planet (interestingly, fungi are more closely related to animals than plants in their evolutionary history).
But let's assume for a second you're right, mushrooms got here via fungal space travel. How do you explain the fact that their mitochodrial DNA originates from bacteria here on earth? Did they travel out the middle of the Milky Way, extablish there, then migrate on back?

the local college radio station randomly plays McKenna shit, usually "alien dreamtime" - they play it at random hours mostly during the day time surprisingly.
entertaining shit, i used to listen to it at work and crack up

Sorry. I meant to add one more zero to that number. But I still would have been off by 60 mil.
I don't believe any of it. I'd be willing to change my ideas about anything. A belief you'll stick by no matter what. I just enjoy thinking. These thoughts lead us to research the plausibility of their truth. be. I'm not hereto prove or debunk anything. I just enjoy playing Devil's Advocate for Mckenna's sake.I do the same thing for science, para-science, and religion.
I'm not trying to prove that even though a spore can live in an oxygen free environment with zero guarding to ultra-violet light, that they could float through space and eventually come into contact with a planet. Or that anything larger than a helium molecule could escape Earth's gravitational pull no matter how many trillions of spores are constantly in the air and atmosphere. Or that the planet was seeded by microbe floating aimlessly through space. But then again, who can prove that these things don't happen?
