Oh' Olympia, say it isn't so.
Say the politicians won't let you go.

Oh' Olympia, the wars you have fought.
Now the politicians are going to let you rot.

Oh' Olympia, the tales you could tell
if only we could pay attention well..

Oh' Olympia, Why must it be?
that some want you to be a reef.

Oh' Olympia, It'll be a sad day.
If you have to go away.

Oh' Olympia, It is you we must save.
From slipping under the waves.

Oh' Olympia, help you must get.
If you are to have refits.

Oh' Olympia, the news we must heed.
That it is you we still need.

Oh' Olympia, this is my poem to you.
For one day I hope to go aboard you.

Eliminating hunger part 2 ( Ideas From Tuskegee)

In this second and final part I discuss how ideas from Tuskegee and George Washington Carver will in my opinion eliminate world hunger. One of the ideas George Washington Carver came up with at Tuskegee was the idea of rotating crops. The reason behind this was that by rotating crops you rejuvenate the nutrient in the soil. there by allowing more food to be grown. I see this as a resolution of ( what is in my opinion) one of the reasons for the famines in Africa and elsewhere in the developing world. The other idea Carver came up with is plowing and harvesting in circles and not straight lines. By doing this you reduce the loss of soil and nutrients. In closing the biggest problem to implementing these ideas is that there will be those farmers who will be resistant to these ideas. In the end, those who use these ideas will have better long term farming than those are farming the way their ancestors did. Only by implementing the ideas mentioned here and in part 1, will we be able to eliminate famines and curtail world hunger.

Eliminating Hunger part 1 ( No Subsidies for E-85 )

This will be a two part series where I discuss how to eliminate world hunger. Part one will be about E-85 ethanol and its negative consequence on the world's food supply. Part two will be about how we must educate the third world populace on the efficient farming methods of George Washington Carver and the Tuskegee Institute. In this part I discuss the reason I believe we should not use our food as fuel for our machines. The reasons not to do this are as follows: First, by turning our food into fuel we waste the much needed food. Second, by using food to power our cars and heat our homes, we end causing shortages which end up in higher food prices when most families can't afford the increases.Third, not only is E-85 inefficient, it also is not as clean as hydrogen. The proof is this, for ever gallon of E-85 made it took 2 gallons of gas, which the fraud of E-85. In other-words, the only people who benefit from E-85 are corrupt politicians looking votes and farmers looking for tax money. If we are to go to renewable fuels, then we should go to something like hydrogen or methane. By doing this, we don't waste food or cause a shortage. It is for these reasons that we cannot, we should not, we must not allow the subsidization of E-85 fuel. Because by subsidizing E-85 we allow the corruption of the politicians and the fall of our government as we increase our debt. In conclusion, if we really want clean fuels and lower our debt, we must not allow E-85 to be subsidized EVER.

America (Why I love her)

In this article I'm going to talk about America & why I love her. The reason I'm writing this is because their is some uncertainty about whether we're the greatest country in the world. The answer to that question is this: Yes, we are the greatest country in the world and here's why I say this. First, it was America who was the first ever country to whose government is the People. And as such, until our founding all nation were ruled by the Elite class of the Aristocracy and not the people. If you look at the mansions or castles that leader's around the world live in the White House is a one-room shack in comparison. America is also the only country that We the People can rule. In other-words even the poorest of the poor can be President, or in Congress. No other country allows you to do this, not even countries we deem as democracies. Second no where else in the world do you see poor people with multiple cars, tvs ,computers or phones in their houses. In other-words America has , in my opinion, the richest poor and middle class in the world. The proof of this is: for those who are poor or middle class, answer these questions. 1) How many times a day do you eat?, 2) How many televisions, cars, or phones do you have?, 3) Do you get full when you eat? If you answer more then one on questions 1 and 2 and answered yes to question three, then you (being poor or middle class) are richer then the poor in the rest of the world. Third, is a story about a guy who immigrated to this country as a child. After arriving in New York and passing the Statue of Liberty he saw an ad for an antacid and he cried. When his mother asked him what was wrong he said they didn't deserve to be in this country because they had never eaten till they were full. Finally no where else in the world can you say what you want without going to jail. These reasons are why I love America, Because we truly are the best country in the world.

Living With Chronic Illness

Living with chronic illness which 1 in 2 American have is a constant fight if you have asthma, cystic fibrosis, or some other chronic illness. So if you have a chronic illness it becomes frustrating that you cannot do thing or enjoy life as those without chronic illness. An example of this is what I go through with my asthma, although its mild, every time I get allergies my coughing is bad enough that I end up nearly blacking out and get strain headaches. I tend to injure my ribs due to the constant cough and the strength of the cough. I also end up going through a 2 month or more coughing spell. Even I have mild asthma I still fight to continue to do what I like doing, like model building. That being said, while I do have mild asthma I will not allow asthma to define me. I will continue doing what I like despite having asthma. And that's what we (people with chronic illness) need to do. We cannot allow our chronic illnesses to define us, wed need to break out of our illnesses and define ourselves. By doing this we tell the world that our illnesses do not define us, we do. Having said that I'll conclude by saying that, while having chronic illness, it is not the end of the world. Because those with chronic illness can still enjoy life like those without chronic illness.

Illegal immigration ( the new slavery)

I am sick of the pro-amnesty and illegal immigrant activists saying that the Arizona's law encourages racial profiling and is unconstitutional. So, here my counter argument to their claims. Their first argument is that it is (SB1070) unconstitutional. They're wrong & here's why, first there is nowhere in the Constitution that prohibit the state from enforcing federal law or pass laws that mirror federal law. In fact every state that enforce anti-drug laws, are in fact, enforcing federal federal laws. Second, the Arizona law does not preempt,but if fact, mirrors federal law. Now this is done in every state that enforces anti-drug laws. In fact here is the opening text, "The legislature finds that there is a compelling interest in the cooperative enforcement of federal immigration laws throughout all of Arizona." The second argument against the Arizona law is "racial profiling". This is a bold face Lie because the law clearly state "lawful contact". that means you have to be breaking another law to be contacted by police. Another problem I have with these groups opposing the Arizona law, is that in my opinion they are pro-slavery and anti-American. They say that illegal immigrants do work Americans won't do. This is the very same lie the pro-slavery politicians said in the 1800s. Next, they say that illegals pay social security and other taxes. This too, is a lie because their employers not only pay them under the table, but pay them a $1/hour if the employers pay them at all. In conclusion I say this: "if you are pro illegal immigration, you are pro-slavery". And there is no room in this country for slavery or slave owners.

Oxis is a company that researches l-ergothioneine and, while I have never of this company before I got the offer to write about their product, I have done research on the company & their product. Oxis, which is a penny stock deals with L-ergothioneine products. My research into this company & their product is as follows: First L-ergothioneine is a naturally occurring amino acid which is found mainly in foods rich in it, such as: liver, kidney, red beans, and oat bran. As well as the highest amounts being in oyster mushrooms & bolete. In the human body is is present in skin, eye lens, erythrocysts(red blood cells), & semen. This amino acid not only does it have antioxidant properties, as well as glutathoine is also a good scavanger of free radicals. As far as I can determine in my research, it is my opinion that this is a good product. However, the only down side with L-ergothioneine is that higher blood levels of L-ergothioneine has been associated with rhumatoid arthritis. the reason is the ETT gene that transports the L-ergothioneine is mutated in Rhumatoid Arthritis and Crohns & transports it more easily than normal proteins. Because the effects of L-ergothioneine on metabolism is unknown at this time, it is unclear whether any results prove a roll between L-ergothioneine & human disease. That being said, while, like I said I think this is a good product, I suggest consulting someone who knows L-ergothioneine to see if its good for you. In closing, while this company is a penny stock, in my opinion I think that Oxis is a good company to look into for L-ergothioneine anti-aging products.

birth defects or disabilities part 2 (the courage & spirit of disabled kids & their parents)

noreply@blogger.com (Terry Ray Williams) — Tue, 18 May 2010 20:21:03 PDT

Top Stories

Children with disabilities & their parents have a more difficult hand dealt to them that they must overcome daily. I have a few examples of these courageous people: one is my niece Shylah who was mentioned in part 1. She was born with cerebral palsey, tracheal esophageal fistula atresia, & undiagnosed seizures. She coded (stopped breathing) for 45 minutes to 1 hour, she also had to have a jejunum gastric tube inserted into her abdomen. since then, she has fought valiantly to progress through her many challenges. Another example is that of a friend whose daughter was has cystic fibrosis. This girl has to have multiple breathing treatment daily. When she eats she has to have enzymes due to the inability to digest food. She also has a club foot & a low tolerance to illnesses. Even so, for a 3 year old, she braves all of the procedures & multiple hospital visits she must endure during winter. In short, she is one of the bravest girl I know.When it comes to parents of disabled kids one of the strongest people I know is Danielle (Shylah's mother). She has struggled with her daughter's seizures,as,well,as, being a single mother.Another strong parent is the friend whose daughter has CF. She & her husband have to constantly be on guard to prevent any illnesses from entering their home. This means that at times their daughter can't have friends or family over if any friend or family member has any illness of any kind. In short, when it comes to illnesses they have to isolate her. In closing, these families with disabilities show the most courage, bravery, & strength of anyone I know. Because no parent can truly know exactly how strong, courageous, or brave they'll be until they are put in a situation where they have a child with disabilities or birth defects. Finally, Shylah's postictal & gelastic seizures are now under control. And the girl with CF is the sweetest girl considering what she goes through. Also, new research has extended the life of CF patients.

Corruption part 2 (Why we Must Expose All Corrupt Leaders)

noreply@blogger.com (Terry Ray Williams) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:22:37 PST

Top Stories

In this final part, I will talk about why we need to shine the light on corrupt leaders and here's why. First, there are nations like North Korea and the Sudan where there is major famine and starvation. The UN continues to send food and the People continue to starve. Why? The answer is that these dishonor morons are stealing the food and hoarding it for themselves. This action alone proves that these people not only have no honor, but are the lowest of all criminals. Because they hate their people and care only of themselves, these so called "Leaders" have decided that only power is the currency and corruption is law. So, until we expose and condemn these trailer trash leaders no one in famine stricken country will ever get food. The second reason for exposing these Trailer trash leaders is the example of illegal immigration. Examples where these laws can be enforced if corrupt Senators, like John McCain, who support slavery, would enforce the laws on the books. Because illegal immigration is slavery and those who oppose laws to stop it are saying the they are in favor of slavery and don't want to change. In other-words, by wanting "cheap labor" they actually want slavery. Because these illegal get paid 10 cents an hour, if they get paid at all. Corrupt Politicians like McCain want the votes while Corrupt organizations like ACORN and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce want the business and want cheap labor. They excuse this by saying, "they do jobs no American wants to do." Hmm, where have I heard this before? Let's see. Oh, I know, this was the same B.S. line that the slave traders of the 1800's said to excuse black slavery. The truth is they cannot excuse this because, this is slavery and the jobs they do, no one should do. So to the trailer trash John McCain and his trailer trash friends. Your corruption will not be tolerated anymore in other-words your services are no longer needed. So in conclusion, all corrupt leaders and organizations need to know this. Their days are numbered and they will no longer take advantage of anyone anymore. And to the people who suffer under corruption this message, I support any revolt you do in the name of freedom and democracy. Because as U.S. President Abraham Lincoln said"Freedom is the natural condition of the human race, in which the Almighty intended men to live. Those who fight the purposes of the Almighty will not succeed. They always have been, they always will be defeated". Because corruption breads tyranny, and tyranny bread famine and suffering which we cannot and should not allow to continue.

Corruption part 1 ( Why it is a Threat to Democracy and Life )

noreply@blogger.com (Terry Ray Williams) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:22:23 PST

Top Stories

I consider corruption a mortal threat to life and moral threat to democracy and here's why. First, it is a mortal threat to life because in places like North Korea now or Somalia in the 90's you have people starving. And the reason they are is because their "leaders", and I use the word leaders very lightly, make sure that any food deliveries in their countries only go to them. In other-words the food and aid shipped to starving countries is stolen by government officials for the benefit of the "leader". In my opinion they do this because a fed populace and an educated populace is harder to control. Next, the so called "leaders" have absolutely no care or concern for their people, they (corrupt leaders) only care about themselves. Third, it is a threat to democracy because it is the one perfect way to have a democracy fall. The reason is that through corruption you have voter & voter registration fraud and permissive attitudes by government officials that allow criminal activities to take place. Here are examples of each of the listed corrupt elements. First with voter & voter registration fraud you run the chance of getting a person who in his soul is the lowest animal you can imagine. In other-words he serve only himself, cares of no-one but himself, and is extremely brutal in civil rights (i.e. free speech etc.). Finally with the corrupt element of permissive attitudes, you have situations like illegal immigration that, to the corrupt is a chance to get more money, more votes, and more slaves, while to the rest needs to be regulated. It it because of these reasons I believe is the biggest threat to all nations and must be brought out into the light. Because in the end, corruption leads to poverty and ruined economies and the proof of this is simple: just follow the money.

Human Rights (why we must include the unborn)

noreply@blogger.com (Terry Ray Williams) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:21:57 PST

Top Stories

In my mind no-one can talk about Human Rights without talking about the rights of the unborn and here's why. First and foremost they are human and in need of protection. If we talk about human rights we must include all humans, even the unborn. Because they not only have no one to speak for them, they have no one to protect them from the baby killers of the abortion rights movement. Because the people who want abortion want to kill all babies, they feel the the unborn should have no rights, ever. I disagree because, first those who advocate abortion include those with disabilities. Second they want to blame the child for the mistakes of the mother or the crimes of the father. In other-words when I'm talking about (in the of crimes of the father) rape and ( in mistakes of the mother) sleep around. It is not the fault of the child that he was the off-spring of a rapist. It is also not his/her fault that their( the unborn child) mother is an adulteress. Next murdering a fetus because of disabilities in my mind shows the hatred of the disabled. Because in my mind it violates their right to life. So in conclusion, if we're going to talk about human rights, then we must talk about all humans including the unborn. Because they have rights, too.

Birth defects or disabilities pt.1 (How kids born with them can inspire us).

This is a subject that is near and dear to me for two reasons. First I was born with Petit-mal Epilepsy, a defect or disability of the brain that causes absence seizures. While my Epilepsy was not a " die at birth" defect, I've still had to fight it. As such I am proud to say that I've outgrown the seizures. The second reason is because two people I know have had kids born with defects. These children have had to fight just to stay alive. One was born severely under weight, due to having her sack connected only to her twin brother and not the mother. In other-words her twin brother got all of the nutrients and she got what little was left. However, after she was born she had two brain bleeds at the hospital. Because of this she now has Cerebral Palsy so while she is disabled there is no telling what she'll do in the future. The other child was born with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) which is a hole in the diaphragm. The mortality rate according to wikipedia is between 40% and 62%. So when children are born with defects like these, whether fatal or not, they have to fight hard to either live or to make it through society. So when a child is born with a defect especially one that is fatal it helps tremendously to pray, because while the child is fighting hard to live, prayer gives the child help to survive. In conclusion the reason I believe that children with birth defects can inspire us is, because with the help of prayer, children with birth defects will fight to the end and won't give up.

Reading (Why its the Most Important Key to Success)

noreply@blogger.com (Terry Ray Williams) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 12:03:00 PDT

The most important key to success, even more important than education in my opinion, is reading. The following reasons why I say it's more important than education are: First, because without the ability to read you cannot get an education. Next by learning to read, not only do you open yourself to an education, but you also open up all horizons which eventually lead to the American dream. In other-words, those who cannot read are likely to be uneducated and more easily controlled by tyrants, and less likely to succeed. Meaning that those who read are more likely to vote for freedom and independence than those who can't and do get more good paying jobs than those who don't. Second, when it comes to literacy, according to www.Phrasebase.com & the Census Bureau the U.S. has a 99% literacy rate which is one of best in the world. However, according to en.Wikipedia.org the United Nations Development Programme list Cuba as number one with 100% and Luxemburg tied with the U.S. in 17th place at 99%, while www.Phasebase.com has Luxemburg as no.1 with 100% and cuba as 23rd with 97% which I tend to believe. Last, as an avid reader and bookworm, I have "been" on pirate ships, Federation starships all over the galaxy, and saved lost monkeys from a train wreck during summer. The reason I've done ll this is because there is no other way to travel the universe or save damsels or animals in distress then to read a book. In conclusion, reading itself is the "starship" of the imagination that can take us to all points in the universe.

In recent weeks the corruption of the political machine in Washington has come to light. Politicians like Rahm Emanuel, Ted Stevens, and John McCain are all either morally corrupt, ethically corrupt, or politically corrupt. In the case of Ted Stevens, he is politically corrupt and I think legally corrupt, but because of the idiot prosecutors his conviction was over turned. John McCain is morally corrupt because he supports the pro-slavery cause and foundations of the Amnesty movement. Rahm Emanuel is in my opinion ethically corrupt because he uses Chicago political tactics to shove his un-American value down our throats. These men and others like them care nothing of We the People and care only of their next votes. These people have nothing but disdain and dislike for the American people. They have been corrupted by the special interest and lobbying firm of Washington and have begun only serving these groups. This, and other reasons, are why We the People must fight for and demand that all elected offices have term limits.

At recent town hall meetings Democrats and liberal Republicans have denounce and name called the voters who have attended them. Calling them everything from "unAmerican" to Nazi". These tactics will fail for the following reasons. First, by attacking the American voters, these politicians have dishonored and disgraced themselves and their names. Because the voters are the employers of politicians not the employees. Second, these personal attacks on the voters are analogous to a fast food employee who slanders his/her manager. Such employees do not get to keep their jobs long. Prove of this, is that these politicians who are attacking the voters and who have campaigns coming up in 2010 are in deep trouble with their voters. these politicians in my opinion do not stand a chance of being re-elected. The American people understand better than the politicians that this is our country, our government, and that they (the politicians) are our servants. So politicians beware, those who throw insults or personal attacks on We The People, will soon find themselves in the unemployment line.

These people have committed treason, bribery, and racketeering as well as allowing Goldman Sacks to become an illegal monopoly. In other-words I believe that members of Congress like Congressmen Pelosi and Frank, and senators Reid and McCain need to go to prison for the corruption being committed. After that we need to vote them out and black ball them from politics forever. Because I believe that these cancers in our country, not only have no honor, but don't deserve their postions, Ever.

But when a long train of abuses and usurptions, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them to absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new guards for their future security."

Second, as the "bell" of liberty is ringing the people of Iran are answering the call with courage. So I hope that the despots in the democratic party and in other countries take note, their days of bullying are over. In closing I hope the progressives and liberals take note the people in this country are also here the liberty "bell" call and we will also answer. In other-words take heed, what happens in Iran will happen here to the communist "mullahs" of the democratic party.

On May 2, 2009 The Dallas cowboys training stadium was flattened by a micro-burst. In that collapse the scout was paralyzed from the waist down. The doctors say it's "permanent" I disagree, here's why. First, and I know this sounds cold, but of all times to have a catastrophic spinal injury, now is the best time for that. In other-words this current time is the best time for the Dallas Cowboys scout to be "permanently" paralyzed, because never before in human history have we been this close to curing spinal injuries. Second, in an online report, NASA is currently working on a tri-corder type device that will detect any environmental pathogen within minutes instead of hours or days. This device is a start, but I believe that we need to improve on this to allow this device to also detect injuries and other diseases. By improving this device we can be able to lower the price of health-care, because this idea take all of the medical testing machines and put them into one efficient portable device. This, plus the other ideas I lay out in part 1 are the only way to lower the price of health-care. What Barack Obama wants will not work, because it only artificially lowers the price without addressing the real problems of taxes, inefficient tech, etc.

CERN ( the way to a new fuel)

Top Stories
In this time of high gas prices the promoters of so called "Green Fuel" programs have a Conflict of interest because they are doing this only because they stand to make tons of money. Programs like corn ethanol, solar energy, and wind power. While these new fuels are clean they are NOT the fuel of the future. The real "fuel of the future" is anti-matter. Currently the most efficient fuel source is nuclear at approx. 2% efficient. Anti-matter however is 100% efficient that's right 100% efficient. Here's an comparison between anti-matter and nuclear. With nuclear power only 2 % of all the matter is converted to energy. the still leaves 98% of the total matter which is nuclear waste. However, anti-matter, when "mixed with an equal amount of matter", converts all the matter into energy in a massive explosion. To put this in perspective 1 teaspoon of anti-matter is enough to sent the space shuttle into orbit 60 times or, if I remember right, power all of New York City for a year. Right now the only problem with anti-matter is the cost to make it. Example: it would bankrupt the United States to make just one teaspoon of it. However with labs like CERN or the Fermilab building bigger and bigger supercoliders and findings ways to more efficiently make anti-matter the price is dramatically declining and will continue to do so until it becomes affordable to make. The bad news about this is that like all technologies there are groups who would like to weapon this and if a terrorist got enough anti-matter and matter that was the equivalent of an average person they could destroy an entire Continent like North America. This is the power and efficiency of anti-matter and why we should allow CERN and other labs to build their supercoliders. Because while it can be used for evil the potential of good as a source of energy and fuel is enormous.

In these days of liberal fascism some question the use of the pledge in schools. Here is the best reason as told by comedian Red Skelton as he quoted his teacher. "I've been listening to you boys and girls recite the Pledge of Allegiance all semester, and it seems as though it is becoming monotonous to you. If I may, may I recite it and try to explain the meaning of each word? '" I: me ,an individual, a committee of one. Pledge: dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self pity. Allegiance: my love and my devotion. To the Flag: Our standard, Old glory, a symbol of freedom. Wherever she waves, there's respect because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts freedom is everybody's job! United: that means that we have all come together. States: individual communities that have united into 48 great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose; all divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united with a common purpose, and that's love for country. And to the Republic: a state in which sovereign power is invested by representatives chosen by the people to govern. And the government is the people and it's from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people. For which it stands one nation: one nation, meaning "so blessed by God". Indivisible: incapable of being divided. With liberty: which is freedom -- the right of power to live one's own life without threat, fear or some sort of retaliation. And justice: the principle or quality of dealing fairly with others. For all; which means, boys and girls, it's as much your country as it is mine."' And now boys and girls let me hear you recite the pledge: '"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands one nation indivsible with liberty and justice for all:'" Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country and two words have been added to the Pledge... UNDER GOD. Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said "that is a prayer" and that would be eliminated from schools also?

Ever since the 1970's people have question the need and relevance of NASA and the manned space program. Here are a few reasons why we need NASA and manned space exploration. 1.( assumption: NASA contributes nothing to our advancement). This assumption is wrong in many ways, first lets think of a few advances and technologies that have been made in the last 30 years. Advancement number 1 fire fighting SCBAs, without the NASA moon missions fire fighters would not have the ability to enter burning buildings like they do now. The breathing apparatus they wear were modeled from the air tanks astronauts like Neil Armstrong wore on the moon. Advancement 2) GPS: without NASA and without the manned space program we would not have this technology we take for granted and here is why. First it was NASA that sent America's first satellite into space. Second it take astronauts to maintain these GPS satellites or in otherwords without the manned space program there would be no GPS. Another reason to keep NASA and manned exploration is this. One day our sun will exhaust it fuel when that happens (in a few billion years) the only way to survive will to leave our solar system. Third it is our nature to set foot in new lands whether here on Earth or in space. This is what make us human, the need to to seek out and explore new areas of our planet and new reaches of our universe. Another statement against manned space exploration is that it is dangerous. This is true, but any exploration whether on Earth or in space is inherently dangerous. So, to end manned exploration because of the danger is like telling Christopher Columbus that he cannot go to the New World because it is dangerous. Had Spanish queen Isabella said this there would have been no United States and we would still be taught the Earth is flat. But because she allowed and financed the trip we now have knowledge and countries that did not exist before Columbus's trip. In closing I say that we must continue NASA and manned exploration because it is in our nature to explore and it is what makes us human.

As the World's population nears 7 billion people it is, in my opinion, vital to national security to in the NASA budget for manned exploration and future colonization. And here's why: First, as we near 7 billion people it is going to get harder to feed everyone, because like everything else in nature overpopulation puts a serious strain on the Earth. Second when an animal group( i.e. deer, moose, lion, etc.) gets overpopulated nature takes over and begins to kill off the excess animal population with hunger and disease. This occurs because with overpopulation the food dwindle to below sustainable amounts which causes the starvation and eventually disease. Now what does this have to do with the human population? The easy answer is: everything, because as we near 7 billion people we are becoming over populated and the proof of this are the famines that are occurring in Africa (among other factors). Third, the Earth is not, in my opinion, going to be able to sustain 8 or 9 billion people without negative consequences. So the only option is manned exploration and colonization, because to stay only on one planet is suicidal for us as a species. Dr. Michio Kaku in one of his books( either Hyperspace or Physics of the Impossible) he talks about the need of us to find and colonize other worlds. Finally as I said in my blog article "NASA, Part1, Why we Must Continue the Manned Space Program" it is in our human nature to not only explore, but to also set foot on, and colonize other lands and other worlds. This is what makes us human and what drives us to the future. So in conclusion the answer to the human popualtion is manned exploration and colonization of space.
