Your sig seems to say it all, in terms of your vision. What people are you
talking about here? A few hundred million out of the 5+ billion on the
planet? And what percentage of those are living in poverty, hence *not*
eating enough, and *not* living longer? It appears nobody outside your 
little corner really matters to you. Future's so bright you gotta wear
shades, it seems.

Not intended as a flame, just a little re-adjustment of your perspective.
