#2 i know, thats what i meant :) problem is though, if you build a city under a city, surely the city on top would collapse depending on the size underground?

The problem isn't the world's population... No.
The problem is Earth...




...It should've been bigger.

How long we will breed in such progression? It is a disaster.

And while the planet grows the decision makers still send children to war.

People should have been shorter - we would eat less food, drive smaller cars, fly smaller planes, have lower ceilings, smaller couches, still have big TV screens

Evolution made us taller, but shorter would have been better for the earth

Just think - centuries from now the history books very well may say that the USA and the terrorists were on the same side, just trying to keep the numbers down. All those rich folk did the right thing by being too greedy to fund clean water and health care for African villages, all those doctors chasing glory by saving lives just added to the problem, and individuals like you and I were just too selfish to take our own lives to ease the burden on everyone else. :(

We all could fit in L.A. that was pretty shocking to me, through technology and science we're going further that we ever imagined to get, that's why I don't buy the apocalyptic view of tree-hugers and fanatic religious people cause so far they have ALWAYS been wrong. 8-) 8-)
