Can you please not take threads off topic, especially when all you are doing is being used by Carrobie to deflect the thread. As a previous moderator elsewhere I thought you would realise what's happing and be immune to it. Thanks.
Deflecting the thread was 'all me.' I made no mention of my wife in this thread and didn't appreciate your reference to her. (Again, I had only mentioned my sister was from Essex. I really would rather not have a message on my screen asking if someone means my wife is a slapper, when said wife is sitting on the sofa next to me).
Thanks.

This is one thread that our friend divegeester should want encased in concrete and buried deep into cyberspace. Perhaps it will be a catalyst for self reflection and the need for some character refinement.

Sarcastic apologies don't count sir.
😉
Now which topic shall we return to, yours or the thread's OP?

Robbie (aka the weasel) made a joke about Essex girls. It was clearly not to be taken seriously, just like your post in the GF 'good riddance' was not to be taken seriously. Still, you wanted to run with it as usual and make a 'hippo out of a hamster'. (Copyrighted).
And i'll indulge whoever I choose...Request denied.

Originally posted by galveston75We can and will produce more but we are, as a species, using up 50% of Earth's resources already. That means we could double present production but not anywhere close to 10 times. That means there will be more and more millions dying from starvation as is happening right now in South Sudan. The only reason they are alive now is United Nations food relief air dropped by the thousands of tons. When that no longer becomes possible, famine deaths will ensue.
Yes more people brings more problems usually. But with issues like food, this planet could produce so much more but money and wicked governments has kept so many areas from thriving as they could with food production.
The bottom line is, there are already too many people on the planet, and of course there are those saying we can support 20 billion and so forth. Even 8 billion coming up soon, is ten times too many people for the resources of the planet. We are like maggots eating ourselves out of house and home.
