Overpopulation: Fact or Fiction?

[loseyourname]

Given the free market and continued calls for seeking new means and technology man has always sought to transform his surroundings, otherwise we would be extinct. The presumptions of ecologists if anything have a Malthusian slant. You keep drilling about ecological footprints yet you do not explain but in an effort to display your pompous arrogance and 'knowledge', of somehow "knowing it" and displaying your intellectual depth you pretend to engage in a discussion of "do you know what an ecological footprint is?".

Relax, dude. Give me a little time. I said I'd be back after I could gather some numbers. I'll explain what an ecological footprint is. I just wanted to make sure you didn't know before I went into an explanation. Don't throw a hissy fit on me.

Please explain the ecological footprint then.

Not until I can construct a detailed explanation of why it would be best to move toward negative population growth. Give me a couple days; I don't want to do it half-assed.
