There will be a day.15 Aug 2018 20:30
In the far distant future, when pollution and global warming has obliterated all life on earth save a small band of vestigial humans. These humans will have mutated pretty much beyond recognition. Being distant descendants of the current day billionaire class, they'll live in underground caves where the billionaires hid millennia before to escape the collapse of society and an environment incapable of supporting life. Over the generations, one such mutation will be the loss of the power of sight. Incest will have diluted their gene pool and to us, were we able to see into the future, they would appear grotesque. They'll worship two gods, one called Rolroyz and the other called Leerjt. And they'll farm another set of descendants, these originating from the non-billionaire classes, and use them for meat.
One day, a huge earthquake will occur, and the ground will open up, exposing these distant cousins of ours to the sunlight and open air of the surface. As they emerge from the dark, they will discover other creatures, and strange plants, and oceans, and the feeling of sunshine hot on their transparent skin, and on their eyelids long since grown permanently closed. And an RNS saying that EMH have been granted mining licences, the DFS is fantastic and it's all full steam ahead... shame they won't be able to read it.
