We're from different memeplexes, but both of our assumptions are equally unearned.

But if we're talking about a second industrial revolution it won't be like the first one, because:

- There will be more carbon in the air, hence more wood to chop and burn

- There will books lying around describing how to leapfrog many steps

I don't think it'd take 10000 years again to restore civilization the second time around.
