I heard Stefan of the Peter Schiff Show mention when talking to someone claiming that humans were "burdensome" that the entire population would fit into the state of Texas, with a couple of acres.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas  Area = 696 241 km2

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population Population = 7.142 billion

at 247 odd acres per km2, = 171971527 acres

171971527 / 7142000000 =  ~0.024 acres or ~97 m2

is my maths correct?

The people at Grow Biointensive used to claim that you could survive on <70 m^2 if done right, I don't know if they still do. But that is neither here nor there, I was just wondering if I got the math right. It seems I did and the anecdote is in error. I seem to recall someone if not Stefan has used that anecdote before I didn't check it then, but I did now because I wanted that woman to be properly wrong, "Burdensome" she called humanity, to who or what I'm not sure, But if it's to her then there are still plenty of places she can go that aren't infested with the the rest of us vermin. They don't have ISP's or plumbers so I guess that's why she is gallantly putting up with the "burdensome" nature of her fellow humans ....Sigh.
