We, as a species, have created technology which compensates for all those abilities that were taken from us thousands of years ago. Even though most of us can't easily telepathically communicate with another individual or group at a distance, phones were created to accomplish this. Even though most of us can't tap into the collective databank for information and skills, we created the Internet where we can do just that. Even though most of us can't teleport across the world in an instant, we have managed to create very fast forms of transport.
