Well, you are as wrong as all other religious nutters who predict the world 
will end soon.

What is the rate of new species creation?

Why is the purported rate of extinction a problem?

Can you name any species that has become extinct in the last 10 years?

Why do you quote Al Gore who is a politician on scientific matters?

No we are not.

The total biomass of all people on the planet is less than the biomass of 
the world's krill.

Do you think krill are in plague proprtions?

Again, completely unsupported crap.

You are a fucking sad case.

You say the world will end in 80 years, but provide no mechanism or reason 
at all. At least most other religious nutters provide some semblance of a 
reason.

You are just full of shit, ignorant of basic science, and a depressing old 
nutter with nothing to say.

If this is how you feel about the future, my advice is see a doctor.
