And what I find offensive is the implication I often get from members of the environmental movement that accomplishing their goals requires some sort of eugenics, with statements like some of them have made like "the carrying capacity of the Earth with people practicing a sustainable lifestyle is at most something like half a billion people." And not just because certainly I and everyone else who has any sort of health problems or otherwise are not in perfect health and physical shape will be among the 90%+ who will find themselves considered part of the "surplus population" under such circumstances . . . . . . ronn! :) _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
