The quote of mine you reference was only meant as a summary ... I did not repeat word for word the entire conversation.
No , I'm not overlooking that detail ... you and I already started previously to talk about that as well ... it was just not included in that very short summary you just referenced.

But ... putting aside that basic summary.
If you like we can pick back up , at that point in our conversation:
How many more centuries into this 1,000 years do you expect before peak fossil fuels ... oil , coal , etc ??
As I commented to you last time when we were discussing this ... The Peak Oil ,Peak Coal, etc ... predictions That I've read do not put them several centuries into the future ... and the ~400ppm of today is still a very long way off from the ~2,000 ppm seen in these other extinction events ... events that also had other contributing factors ... and events that were not to the magnitude of the event you predict.

By the way ... before we get side tracked ... have you decided what specific things (I have claimed) that you want me to provide reasons , etc for ? ... Sense I have never claimed 'that miracles thing'... that you got the impression of somehow.

Which is why ... my own PoV ... that no one has asked for so I'll just say .. it is more like a bell curve than a single hard number.
