RE: Plummeting insect numbers threaten collapse of nature

The article lost all its credibility with me when it cited Paul Ehrlich as one of its supporting experts. Paul Ehrlich (also known as "Chicken Little") wrote the now discredited book "The Population Bomb" in 1968. Real science doesn't work by making wild predictions and hoping that SOME of them come true. If even ONE of his predictions turned out false, his entire "theory" should be discarded. But MOST of his predictions turned out to be false. So, anybody who quotes him as an authority about predicting the future is scientifically illiterate. <0|ΙΈ|0> -Joe- |
