That;s exactly what many are coming to believe happened in 10,600 BC.

The Earth passed through a huge (100 mile dia) broken up comet field - the resulting strike burned of 4% of the worlds vegetation, killed off the mega fauna, destroyed existing world wide civilization, ushered in the Younger Dryas Cold Event which lasted 1000 years.

In the process, the surviving human population was driven insane, lost their memory of the past, and had to start over again without knowing who they are or what came before.

You don’;t have to wipe out 99%.

We all can describe how phones work, but who here could build one from scratch? Mean while, while you write down all the steps you can remember, some one has to feed you, or you have to fed your self, but other people have dibs on the food so you get none, starve to death ; no one has a clue what was on the paper where you wrote everything down, but it makes a good fire started which is more important that phones.

You just have to make life about personal survival, minute to minute - all the rest is unimportant and is quickly forgotten.
