Has anyone been able to decipher what's written here on the Martian
soil? It seems to be some ancient Martian dialect I'm unfamiliar with.

AFAICS it reads "if you can read this you are too...." but I can't read
the last word or syllables.

Anyone?

Dunno, but I thought the shortest distance between two points was a
straight line.
Perhaps its Old Martian for DWI.

Yes yes I can just make it out it says B=O=L=L=O=C=K=S.

I came encountered this thread on a third generation reply, so pardon me if
I am repeating an obvious question.

CeeBee,

I can understand that it "seems to be some ancient Martian dialect" you are
unfamiliar with, but could you list which ancient Martian dialects you ARE
familiar with.

How about post classical dialects?

Maybe contemporary....?
