- FridayoLeary 4y agoA good point. Also, i don't think any of our great buildings (i.e empire state building, all those skyscrapers made from steel frames and glass) or technology will survive 400 years into the future. They will think we never made anything. Not only that, but they will dismiss written accounts as fiction. Even our plastic waste should have largely dissolved by then.
