Disagree with the hyperbolic arguement. After stating everyone thinks linearly and its incorrect, Chris suggests that we apply a hyperbolic model to everything.. Things move hyperbolically until they cease too, maths models dont hold for ever for human behaviour when external pressures exist. If All the people in the world stood shoulder to shoulder we would just fillKansas a mid sized US state. His exponential population forecast does not recognise stabilises.. in Africa excesses birth rates see's famine and high mortality.... same would occur on a bigger scale if we fail to be able to provide. A bit of an outrider for population control..agenda

this is exactly true (at least I believe it is), unfortunately nobody wants to hear it. It will be the eleventh hour again and a dark age will fall on us while we correct are ways.
