Zero Population Growth is now known as Population Connection

Population Connection sounds more politically correct.
But: what is politically correct?! [to Homo s.s.? or out of respect for the planet?]
As a child of 8, I was already strongly in the camp of "zero population growth", or should I write even more aptly, Negative Human Population Growth.
(However, later my hormones and arrogance got in the way.)

@dkw: I almost would have signed myself up for that, except as a biological purist, I would have voted for keeping the body, with all its art, intact.
I would have modified my behaviors, instead.
The Loner's Manifesto, anyone?

@brian in mpls: I'm afraid I haven't heard of it. I lead an intensely almost monodirectional life. I'd be glad to hear more about it, I think. Do tell - or maybe it's on your site already? I'll go there next.

Best regards,
Ribo
