Basically in the story civilization and all its knowledge is destroyed every 3000 years (or something). It's just like the IVAN forums. So, once again, here we are starting from scratch, at least with our written record, luckily my brain is more robust than the servers.

If only the IVAN forums did last 3000 years each...

EDIT: Why's this in the TTS section though?
