"We have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction."
~ US State Department, 1948

There are lots of explanations as to why we might have thrived while other species failed in the case of such an event.
A North American blast could have been relatively easily survived by the people of that time, given the right circumstances. We know that the Americas were well settled as of about 13200 years ago, and at this time most of the North American continent was glacial like Greenland is today.
This means that the people of North America would have already been living under harsh conditions and would have had low lying shelters to guard against the cold. Any shelter at all could have helped bear the brunt of any atmospheric blast which might have wiped out a lot of the land mammals. With luck, if the event happened at night time and the human shelters were strong enough to hold up to the blast or at least not crush the inhabitants, initial casualties might have been negligible.
At the time, living was easiest along the coasts, where the land was more forgiving than the ice-blanketed interior. The coast gives the advantage of having the sea to fall back on if the food supply dwindles. Early Americans were rather advanced and adaptable and could easily have hunted some of the last of the great mammals when faced with shortage.
In another article about the same theory, the main argument against is this:
"Clovis culture is transformed into Folsom, Dalton and Eastern U.S. variants, and all of these are much more numerous than Clovis, suggesting a human population increase, not collapse."
So they admit that human culture is rocked. And so what if human populations explode after the event? This disproves nothing and could be considered supporting evidence. Such an event might have helped to seed a lifeless glacial continent and create a golden age for humankind... once the steam cleared.
Not a very convincing argument against the comet theory. Obviously *something* caused a climactic shift back then, something that flung iridium everywhere and pockmarked the landscape. Got any other ideas?
