You have New York City, which for whatever reason is this limited amount of space where everything is happening. And something like that with all that energy and all that investment is either destined to fall or it's destined to be greatness, right? The Nile is sort of similar to that. As the Sahara is drying up, you have all these people who are pushed into this small compacted area.

You can't have miles and miles and miles to take your cattle around and feed in all this random grass and set up camp everywhere and just live off of the land. You have to form a sedentary lifestyle and people are packed on top of each other. So that's how they're destined to fail miserably or be an enormous success.

maybe a success so great in such a fertile place that it creates a civilization that's powerful enough to create the world's largest structures before human history and other civilizations are even doing anything. They're all, you know, around the ancient world, everybody else for the most part are still cavemen when the pyramids are being built at the pyramid's youngest date, you know?

And so I just find that fascinating. But so you have Egyptians rising, uh, arriving in Egypt. And one of the first things that they would notice as they're going down to the Nile all throughout the day is they would have known noticed this flower. So I write, uh, the Egyptian blue Lotus rises from the depths of the Nile blooms to worship the sun and descends back into the river every single day.

Sure, sure. So the only issue I would take with that is we're dealing with a different chapter in humanity going back this far. And it's really at the 5th century BC when the Greek philosophers like Socrates, he starts telling the people, telling all the young people around the Agora...
