And that those survivors, just as we would do today, took refuge amongst people who'd made it through the disaster better. And those people who'd made it through would most likely have been hunter-gatherers. Because hunter-gatherers are so resilient and so able to survive disasters, whereas people in a quote-unquote civilized condition are often not.
I understand that the hurricanes that are happening in the U.S. at the moment are horrific, horrific natural events which are killing people. But we're talking about something on a scale vastly larger than that. And it's difficult for me to see. We find it hard enough to make it through a hurricane.

I find it difficult to see how we could make it through another Younger Dryas impact event or how we could make it through a man-made cataclysm as a result of nuclear war, which is I suspect and I fear is much closer than we think. I hate the idea. that nuclear missiles may be flying in my lifetime or the lifetime of my children.

But I have to say, honestly, it's a possibility with the state of the world at the moment and the low state of consciousness of the people who lead us. The leaders and governments are behind this. It's not human beings, individual people who are behind this hatred in the world today. It's leaders and governments who are mobilizing that hatred to serve their own interests. And it's very dangerous.

Generally, with any archaeological site, they don't excavate more than 5% of it and often less than 2% of it. Is that because of funds? It's often because of funds, but it's also because of the feeling that as technology improves, more may be learned from these sites in the future. And that's a reasonable argument. Because excavation is destruction.

To a certain extent, excavation destroys what's being excavated. And therefore, when you interfere with a site and start excavating it, you may be destroying materials that in 100 years, technology would be able to interpret in a completely different way. I mean, go back 100 years from where we are at present, and you didn't have carbon dating, you didn't have... You didn't have LIDAR.

You didn't have all kinds of methods of dating objects. You know, luminescence, the luminescence from rocks is another way of dating. We didn't have any of those technologies. We do have them now. And so I think the speculation is 100 years in the future, archaeologists may have technologies that would be able to extract more information than this. That's the case that's made. I get it.
