Such habitats are intrinsically unstable. But habitats that are wider

I'm not quite sure what you mean -- if you mean that having more
children after 1 boy and 1 girl doesn't increase your costs, you're
wrong. Talk to someone with 2 kids about their grocery bill for a week,
and then talk to someone with 4 kids about their grocery bill. Shoes

Its amazing that so many messages have been devoted to dissecting what
[EMAIL PROTECTED] precisely meant by this insult.
Of course, there's only one thing you need to know about
I would guess that global economic
growth will transition towards the US/China/India,
certainly. If India ever gets its act together and
does serious reform that order might change to
India/US/China, but I'm not immensely optimistic on
that, sadly.

I'm not presuming to say you
Is that a function of population, or people
finishing school? Is high
school compulsory in the US? Either way, it's
certainly going to improve

HS is effectively compulsory in the US (you can drop
out at 16) - but in this case it's a function of
population.

Old topic now. Five transcripts on this page, in doc format. This seemed to
