Well at least you're not an ignorant descendent of those once great Egyptians ; ). But your hypothesis re:lineage is at least as good as mine so I'll call it a day : ).
There is no reason for panic.
Return to your standard subroutines.
We are all descendents of those Egyptians.

On a more serious note, although I agree with the sentiment of your comment, the first twelve monkeys to hit the typewriter won't always be the best informed. Sometimes it can take hours before someone with practical knowledge of the subject at hand chimes in. Added to that that moderation may take some time too there's always going to be crud before pearls. You can find more information on specialist websites, but there is often no discussion due the low visitor numbers on those sites or even no possibility to leave comments at all.
Project 18 monkeys is a go.

Although I largely agree with your skepticism (and am intrigued by the sentence "Look up the French Revolution for an example of pretending that politics > math",would you care to expound on that?), I think your view lacks the perspective of the vast improvements that can be achieved with efficiency/ economy/ frugality.

A relatively simple ten percent reduction in the top ten energy using countries would alleviate a massive amount of necessary production.
I read it as "as other types of plants (i.e. Coal) are being closed or mothballed because they can't cover their operating costs, or to meet stricter environmental regulation".
i.e. "there's not enough clean energy being produced and some of the older other (non-nuclear) types of plants are as dirty/dirtier than nuclear"?
