Quite a queue!

Apparently, I am the 76,014,082,892nd member of the species Homo Sapiens to be born.

On the day I was born, the world's population was 2,772,772,874. Today it has just passed 7,000,000,000.

Crikey.

  3. Big unprovable numbers. I smell the stench of the UN reaching out for cash for some cash for some group of third world hell holes political leaders.

  4. I punched my date of birth into the calculator today too. Simply amazed that there were about half as many people on the planet back in 1971 as there are today.

    Makes me glad we chose not to add to it. Motorcycles are better than kids, IMHO.
