Overpopulation is a myth?

Oh.

I just posted a couple of questions to you. Don't bother to answer them if you're busy today.

Estimated world population at the start of the last century (1900) was under 1 billion. It's now 6 billion. Up 6 times.

Now these are estimates; they could be wrong. No worldwide census is conducted, so we're left with estimates.

The 1900 census set the US population at 76,212,168. The 2000 census put it at 281,421,906. More than 3 times greater. And those are pretty reliable numbers.

If you don't think there is a population explosion, stick around. You will.
