Doc,

2004 is only eight months away. Is the world going to collapse in eight months?

Most of those criteria, like crop space per capita, are phoney. There is enough agricultural capacity to feed the world several times over at present population levels. Famines happen not because of failures of production but because of maldistribution due to social causes.

Regards,
Dick
