In 1999, it comes up that we don't know how far in the future we are. This is as a consequence of the Orokin destroying all the old history. However, Loid mentions that there are still palaeolithic cave paintings. Could Loid and Albrecht or literally anyone else not just carbon date pigment samples or something?

I can forgive bugs. I don't know if I can forgive this.

Carbon datings lowest margin of error is decades, only getting larger with time. Its thus reasonable to assert we could say, "Yeah its like a thousandish years into the future." but not be able to say "It is Saturday December 28, 3024."

I'd even take resolution down to the millennium!

One problem I think could happen with radiodating is that at some point the Orokin irradiated the Earth, so presumably we'd lack calibration curves in the future. I don't know how much that would affect things.

It might help, if we knew roughly how long ago the irradiation happened. One fairly reliable way of telling age is looking at major events: counting rings on trees, for example. If any are old enough, you could literally find the ring where the irradiation occurred, then count the rings forward. Even without trees, you can do something similar with core samples - it's just less precise.

What if the trees were also irradiated and pumped full of growth hormones?
