Dangers of becoming complacent

[Sekwo]

If the world were sent back to the Mesolithic and Britain was left with a few thousand people, and I were alone, I would have a lot more chance of surviving that most people, but I still don't think I would. But if I had my kids with me, I think I might survive long enough that they could then survive with my help, and their kids might even thrive.

So, I know I need the modern world to survive ... but not all of it.
