Somewhere I read that Dr Paul Ehrlich's actual field of expertise is entomology, specifically butterfly population dynamics. His predictions are probably perfectly reasonable if humans responded to environmental stress like insects.

If what I read was true it is another example of expertise in one field rendering one a total fool in another !

"Ehrlich"

I remember back in the late sixties when Ehrlich made the rounds of all the talk shows in the wake of the popularity of his book. He had the look in his eyes of a fanatic...which of course he was. I wish I had the transcript of his interview on Carson's show. Carson was pretty much a skeptic of most of what the babbling classes spewed.

You mean like the time I thought I could do brain surgery based on my experience filleting fish?
