How apropos!  But, for my next trick I'll collect up all the sunlight!  Oh, if only it was that easy!

I'm so happy when the complexities... Smiling

200 years is a tick of the geological clock, but people aren't lemmings (except for the sheeple), we've got some chutzpah.

While the consumption & exploitation curves seem exponential (Fibonacci actually), the production & improvement curves are much more complex.  It's really hard to predict when the lines will cross.  

So while 200 yr is a WAG, I'm really only thinking of it in terms of the probability ratio tipping towards global destruction.  The reality is still anyones guess.
