Anybody saw CNN's "Planet In Peril" last night. It was certainly eye-opening!

It was going to be called "Scare Tactics", but there was already a show by that name.

CNN's Planet in Peril. B..S.. Try Standing Room Only.

Huxley's Picture of "Planet in Peril" was quite different.
Thomas Malthus had said the same.
They predicted, that birth rate....would put the planet in peril.
In fact they predicted, we, like penguins, would have " Standing Room
Only."

There you go! Herein lies the investment opportunity of a lifetime. Rubber sales should be skyrocketing soon, most especially in the wake of a mass educational blitz which is sure to come on the heels of this news.
