lol you’d be extremely lucky if your grandkids remember much about you at all. After that 99.9% you are forgotten unless you changed the world in some major way…just the facts ppl.
10,000yrs??? Maybe only a handful of ppl like Newton, Einstein, Tesla, Ford, DaVinci, Edison, Washington?
Not many…more likely none of these after 10k years
