Haha, I thought I was the only one who thought that. Welcome to the club, BladeVenom.
It's a tad optimistic on how quickly civilization will recover the invention of the abacus though. We'll be doing good to have re-learned how to farm (agriculture) without the pesticides and benefits of fossil-fuel powered irrigation systems.
You'd think the Amish might do allright for themselves, except for the hordes of famished mobs that will stream out of Philadelphia and proceed to strip-mine the countryside for food during that first winter.
Planet of the Apes wasn't so farfetched when you think about it...
Nah, all the population centers will be blown up. Africa will be the new center of civilization; why waste nukes on that place:?
