Thread-topic: [dinosaur] Advanced dinosaurian species?

The late Dale Russell hypothesized a "dinosauroid" from a troodontid lineage. There are plenty of references in the web.

Oggetto: Re: [dinosaur] Advanced dinosaurian species?

There's no evidence that any non-bird dinosaurs had a level of intelligence beyond that of crocodilians or ratite birds. We have no evidence of any civilization on earth other than our own. If any dinos survived the K-T extinction event, they didn't last long. But it's fun to speculate on what life would be like had the terminal Cretaceous catastrophe not happened, and many have done so with interesting results (not all scenarios involve human-level intelligence arising).

I was wondering if any of the professional paleontologist's here could offer any insight on this question: Is it possible that at least one species of dinosaur had developed a more advanced civilization similar to our pre-industrial civilizations? Could any evidence have survived both the impact and resulting global catastrophe as well as 65 million years? What do we produce today that could survive a similar incident and 65 million years to provide proof of our existence in the future if we go extinct? Thank you for your insights.
