Not that I'm insensitive to these people in the
developing countries, but has anyone mentioned
overpopulation here?  In the US along, by 2010 the
estimate is that we will double.  We are somewhere
around 376 million right now.  Just wait till the
governments make it manditory for everyone to be a
vegetarian because there is no land to feed cows.  I'm
sure your golf courses will still be in tact though.

We better get started on terraforming Mars pretty
soon.
