[Has] Humanity really survived at that point[?]

Yeah. And probably found a new way to live. Do you consider Humanity to be intrinsically tied to modern society?

Just the tip?

I love to see it, and I genuinely hope you're right!

I'm sorry. I promise I'm a big picture optimist, if that helps! 😜

Just for clarification, I don't think it'll be fast. It will just be faster than without it.

Also, I think we'll hang on to a lot because the survivor base will likely be made up of people from all walks of life. STEM Professionals, teachers, carpenters, you name it. And as long as we learned our lesson about religion, we'll pass that knowledge on.

Mass extinction, not complete extinction.

It's not hubris. Humans are one of, if not the most adaptable species on the planet. Unless it gets so hot that the caves become uninhabitable, we'll squeak by.

I see it like this: If there is a way, we will find it. It's in our DNA.

It was a shower thought?

It just hit me in a sobering kinda way.

That's where we disagree. I think there will be small inhabitable areas of the planet for centuries, at least. If not, there are caves. Humans are nothing if not -persistent.-

It just hit me in a sobering sorta way.

100% . I love to see it!

We survived an ice age, though, and we're very highly adaptable. Plus, we will hold on to some percentage of technical knowledge that will help us adapt faster.

I think you're selling us short! 😜

What do you disagree with, though?
