If you re-read my comment, you'll notice I didn't say it would help save civ. I said it was intended for people who wanted to. There's a difference.

It might help though - if you can figure out how you can use the knowledge to that end. Any knowledge can be used for any purpose, after all.

Saving civ really isn't my gig, though.
