Aitch: That compression of the world's population exercise was interesting. But why did nobody in the village have a computer? Statistically, one person would have owned at least a percentage of a computer - maybe a keyboard. Your analogy reminds of another - that if you gave everybody in the world standing room only, the whole world's population could fit on the Isle of Wight, which is a small island just off the South Coast of England below Bournemouth. (What would a US equivalent be - one of the smaller Hawaian islands?)
