The decline of civilization? A discussion

[cmacq]

If I remember correctly, this was your question, was it not?

No, they were fixable only if one could fix the sun. I think in the west the Senatorial Aristocracy said, 'lets declare bankruptcy' and started anew with the barbars as 'paid protection.' Then they pulled their scaley heads back into their shells and lived out the remainder of their short, miserable, cold-dark-little lives; until some time in the 600s. I think we should always remember that the fix to many things remain out of the reach of human hands?
