“The human species is hundreds of thousands of years old. The human family; several millions of years old. We have led a sedentary existence based off farming and the domestication of animals for only the last 3% of that period, during which is all of our recorded history…

                In the first 97% of that tenure on Earth, almost everything that is characteristically human came into being.”
