By The Numbers - part the twenty second

Don't you just love human geometry? We've made 8 billion of ourselves. Which is to say, all at once now, not just in all of history. 8 billion.

For comparison:
1951 - 2,584,034,261 [I know, why didn't they use 1950??]
1900 - 1,600,000,000
1850 - 1,200,000,000
1804 - 1,000,000,000 [more or less, the USofA beginning]

And the RRW (of all countries, btw) want to run this little blue marble as if it's still the beginning of the 19th century. Slaves and women as chattel and all the rest. Keep on fucking, big daddy.

Ain't geometric growth powerful?
