# That you know of.
For all you know the species we're keeping alive are suppressing the emergence of others that may later become the dominant ones. And no, most extinctions are not down to mankind. Most extinctions are on micro-organisms. Where do they come in to your plan or is it out of sight out of mind for you? And equally how can you tell me that the next dominant species' on earth will evolve from single-celled organisms?

We got a £1000 for this hour or two's worth of shopping from a slide, from National Geographic:



And that's that, cool little chat though :)
