Yes, that's the point but your date is off. The immigration to Australia included dingos but was further back.

Thank you for demonstrating your ignorance. Please actually read the originally cited article and come to understand evolution.
The evidence for multiple domestications is overwhelmingly strong. Denial of it is like climate change denial. There may always be someone with their pet unified domestication theory but it's simply wrong.
Yes, I did read the article and still see strong evidence and logic for the multiple domestication. For example, some strong domestication results are within the 15K BP timeframe but people also took domestic dogs with them to Australia which is much greater than that frame. It's complex. I doubt this will solve it.
There is a huge amount of evidence that domestication did not happen once or in one place but many times in many places around the world. This evidence points back as far as about 135,000 years and as close as about 15,000 years for each of these events in time where wolves domesticated humans. It is speculated that wolves did this for two reasons: fire and thumbs for scratching.
It is not surprising that there would be multiple domestications. A human plus a wolf are far more powerful at defense and offense, at hunting and guarding than either species alone. Our social structures are very parallel and our physical abilities complement each other.
If you could reach you would too and you wouldn't get anything else done. This flexibility is why dogs never achieved the great advances of mankind like space flight and nuclear bombs. Imagine if men were that flexible...
Yes, you are correct the supply chain web is very complex, however things can be far simpler with ease. Your example of fertilizer is a prime case. We can produce fertilizer locally to produce food locally to feed local populations. The long distance transport of any of those things is unnecessary. Simply making things local solves a _lot_ of these problems and eliminates a lot of the packaging, energy and other issues in the supply chain. Things can be done more simply. It just happens that we have cheap oil to do it in a complex way so society does it in a complex way right now.
The dead bodies will be gone fairly quickly if the scavengers and decay organisms survive, which is likely. Don't worry.
Make a spike out of Sch80 PVC
Please trickle in lead low voltage wires for aux power
Batter in bottom
Solar on top to charge it
Airport WiFi for access with Time Capsule or the like
Big enough hard drive to hold everything you'll want.
Do it in RAID-wise with two drives incase one fails.
Use low energy drives so minimal heat.
Seal it all up so moisture stays out.
Bury it under ground with antenna out and cell.
Paranoid? Setup a second remote one.
One more reason to _not_ send your kids to public school.
It's going to need words that mean multiple things and multiple words to say the same thing or we won't be able to tell such great jokes and poetry.
So Carly Fiorina is a candidate who has nothing to offer. All she is able to do is mud sling at others who are far better than her. She's a classic tear down candidate and as such should not be voted for. Unless she runs against someone worse like Hillary. *sigh*
You miss the point. Our family owns, builds, operates and creates it. Same as we did for our house which we also built ourselves, our greenhouse that we also built for ourselves. While you wasted your time in school doing fake things we do real applications and get real benefits. It's a real world out there, kiddo.
School is never out. We homeschool. We're always learning. It's not classroom sit down book learning much of the time but real world things to a large degree. Projects are multi-discipline.
The latest project our family is almost finished with:
Building a USDA / State inspected modern meat processing facility (a.k.a. butcher shop)
History, government, regulations, economics, business, math, engineering, material sciences, architecture, construction, plumbing, electrical, water supply systems, heating, ventilation, refrigeration, meat cutting and so much more...
The locals or the business who place there or the businesses already there who have been creating the problem or the governments. They are whom ever will be there in the future. No need to invoke mysterious aliens. Yesterday's middens are tomorrows treasure troves.
Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
