Would the last person leaving Seattle please turn out the lights.

  Renton sobs.

    Is this good or bad for my house-buying efforts?
    • Aloha 7y ago
      Neither. Closing the plants in Renton and Kent might move the needle.
    • vkou 7y ago
      No, because it's the techies who make all the money in Seattle.

  There was a related chapter the last book of Robert J. Sawyer's "WWW Trilogy". The AI throughout the thread survives for long enough to see Humanity evacuate the Earth given Sol's transformation to swallow the inner planets. Copies of the Original AI had been spread across intersolar Human civilization, but the original technically speaking had to remain on Earth. That chapter was titled something along the lines of "Will the last human please turn off the sun" or similar [it's been at least 5 years for me on the reading].
