    Well, to me the word "extinction" is not a relative term.  It's not "from the POV of the peoople who died off", it's a biological term that means there are no organisms of a species left.  Calling this an extinction is overly dramatic and alarmist.  It's a Population Knockdown, likely a very large one.

    Civilizations don't go extinct.  Civilizations COLLAPSE.  That's the accurate term for TEOTWAWKI.
