$aafPicture the scene, planet Earth, 1,000,000 years from now.  Human
civilisation has crumbled to dust, destroyed in an atomic-powered
apocalyptic nightmare.  All life on earth has been destroyed long ago,
and Mother Nature is just beginning to reclaim her birthright, life
spawns once more...

$afaNothing remains of "our" society, except - as those who are conversant
with the concept of non-biodegradable plastics will be aware - PLASTIC
CARRIER-BAGS.  Our buildings will have crumbled to dust, we ourselves
will be naught but atoms scattered by the four winds, but your trusty
carrier will still be around, advertising Tesco's price-promise to the
passing amoebonic lifeforms.

$faaAliens may land upon the planet, to survey it for colonisation,
returning to thier leaders with stories of artifacts from an ancient,
long-dead civilisation with arcane runes calling upon the power of the
mighty "Matalan".

$fafPrimitive peoples a million years from now, may be worshipping the
incredible powers of the MacDonalds 69p Cheeseburger with extra relish
(hallowed be his name!)

$afaAt least we won't be around then, so we won't be told to clear it all
up!
