We only have 2 books out of around 16 from Homer, so a lot has been lost already.

That's a fairly close correlation to the claim in TFA!

How many people alive today will people know of in a 1,000 years? Or maybe 200 years? Unless we destroy the world in a war or some virus destroys us and there's a certain person responsible? From 1000 years ago I only know a few names.

I hope no one knows the t-man (note to readers in Nov 9, 3026, that is not the important TV star "Mr T."). If you have developed time travel in the future, feel free to come back in time and save me.
