Excellent, but very few people will bother to take note of it or reflect on it. Hubris seems to be the curse of humanity.

Were excellent at being homo haber Homo sapient ? Not so much ….mostly
Its possible that something as simple as the grinding stone led to mankind sedentary status. Grinding cereals and lugging those stones around was lots of labor. Lets domesticate these cereals and have a permanent grinding centers. From there the entanglements get messy quickly...
But to give mankind his due We were thrown into a nasty situation Bi-pedal --no fangs--- limited strengths The odds were against this species
Yet we clawed our way to the top the food chain Good ol’Stone age Techno and an Incredible accomplishment
But can we save it from our strengths? Does it matter? This is where the sapient part comes in…
The speed of sludge
