than he expected. Ehrlich failed to take into account the effect of Science and technology, both of which have given us a small repreive. Kelphead, since you comment on the flawed character of Mr Ehrlich's model, could you elucidate it for us? What do "Malthusians" say? How are such predictions always wrong? And could you perhaps then give us the alternative (and presumably more correct) model/scenario ? Inquiring minds are waiting.
