Why pick on the 1/3 world? You'd get far more bang for your buck killing-off people from Europe, the USA or the richer parts of the ME.

Anyway it's stupid...

Life-extension the privilege of the elite? Just think of the middle-class guilt you'd build up when the only ethical and sustainable thing you could do would be to stop breathing. Maybe we could offset by sponsoring an alcoholic or something?

This guy has been watching too many Coke adverts.

Talking about energy, first thing he said was 'it's easy to sort... the scientists will invent something'....

Oh grief.

Mind...he is not up on current affairs. Full stop.

Not my job to 'convince' or 'convert' but it is stupidly annoying LOL
He's young yet, he knows it all. Just set a good example yourself and never get deflected.

:shock: Yup the scientists have invented something to deal with the energy problem lots of things. Nerve agents cluster bombs ak47s drones biological weapons, atomic weapons. Hell the people in Rwanda were able to kill 800,000 people 20% of their population in 3 months with a few guns and loads of chinese imported machetes :shock:



:D The scientists are bound to be working on it as we speak
..and loads of chinese imported machetes
And I gotta tell you, they take a hell of a lot of sharpening to get a decent edge on them. Bought one from Outdoor Warehouse once!
