I used to work for a company that was tasked with designing a means of communicating the hazards of Yucca Mountain (back when it was an option for burial of nuclear waste).

The trouble was it had to be designed so people could still understand it 20,000(?) years from now.

At the rate most people are getting dumber, that would have been an impossible task.
