Quoting the article: "And one can, of course, project this model into the future, too. The maths tells us that in 3,000 years someone alive today will be the common ancestor of all humanity.

A few thousand years after that, 80% of us (those who leave children who in turn leave children, and so on) will be ancestors of all humanity. What an inheritance!"

Heh =). But what I mean is something like, will there be someone alive in 3000 years that is about 2000 years old.
