How long would it take for the planet to get back to at least an equivalent of 20th century society?

I think that we would have to have an equivalent of 19th century technology in order create something akin to the Industrial Revolution, in order to rebuild civilization.

That is, if Moore's Law doesn't get us first.

Then we're really hosed.
