Yeah, enough is enough and 6 billion sounds like enough to me. Its not like all those millions in Calcutta and Bombay are just having a fine time jammed together on the sidewalks (call it home) trying to avoid starvation, heat stroke and cobras. Anyway, by my math you'd need 600,000 square miles to pack in 6 billion people at 10,000 per square mile (denser than Washington D.C.). Thats Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California at least. And 6 billion is probably old news by now, call it 7. ----------------------------------------- --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "Arden Kysely" wrote:

Alright, how about some consideration to what the 'experts' say ... "U.N. estimates for 2050 are down from 9.4 billion to 8.9 billion. The population is expected to stabilize at 9 billion by 2300. The long-range report marks the first time the U.N. has issued projections for years as distant as 2300, 150 years further out than earlier estimates." http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/2003-12-09-worldpop-usat_x.htm --John Kokola not that USAToday is my idea of hard news, but there you go -----Original Message----- From: klr250not Yeah, enough is enough and 6 billion sounds like enough to me.

I trust U.N. figures less than our intelligence network. And that is saying something. Criswell

6 B is way too many in my book; 2-3 B would be far more comfortable, especially for cougars and many other species more deserving of their habitat than humanity is. Legislating a death penalty for those who kill protected species, or even shoot game out of season, might help chip away at the total. -------------------------------------------------

Let's all pull numbers out of the air and make wild predictions, shall we? This post reeks of the "I've got mine, everyone else can go screw" mentality. If you have the courage of your convictions, you should eat a bullet. Thanks CA Stu PS last post on this subject from me. --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "klr250not" wrote:

Emm I don't know where you live but there is a s______ load of open space all over the world (except for India maybe). Get in an airplane and fly over it, or a car / bike and drive for a while. Seems there is a lot of space for critters. I have seen quite a bit of it. Sometimes I have seen so much it has almost put me to sleep. Criswell

Well that sounds like a wild ass threat to me. I'm going to suggest that you be thrown off this board. "Eat a bullet"--Ive got something for you to eat if you care to look me up. We're in the same state as I recall.

Only if you do it in the woods so you would feed the fauna. Better than a bullet would be to position your body in such a way as to initiate a mountain lion attack. We don't want these cuddly creatures loosing their hunting skills. Bogdan

I didn't see it as a threat at all, just a rhetorical invitation to suicide. Only to make a point, of course. Bogdan, who would prefer that you eat a - say - Twinkie or some sushi
