RE: Bart's comment on world population--
Just had to insert my 2 cents worth, since the issue of population is not
the slightest bit politically neutral. Just for one point (and there are many
to be made), the fact that poor peasants in Latin America are forced to
subsist on marginal sloping land just might have something to do with
deliberate policies that have pushed them off the prime lands, now used
to produce, among other things, obscene amounts of beef for the North
American market.
Cheers!
