A murder of crows


While doing this, I was thinking about John Brunner's 1968 sci-fi novel, 'Stand on Zanzibar' about world over-population. In 1968 the population was around 3.5 billion people. Brunner postulated/extrapolated that by 2010 the world would have 7 billion people and it you stood them all shoulder to shoulder it would take an island the size of Zanzibar (600 square miles) to hold them. The best guess, today is that the world population is, as of mid-2009, 6,790,062,216, He was close!
By the way, back in John's day you could fit the whole world population on an island of about 150 square miles.
