I am not thrilled with humans as a race, so I take them one at a time and look for the good in their hearts.

I hate to say this, but most people do not live up to their potential. Not even me. Most also do not take responsibility for their lives that they created (that I do!). Am I a bit pessimistic? Perhaps. But also realistic.

Maybe that will change.
Anyone who is worried about the "human virus" spreading unchecked. Check out this web site. You can find the population growths of any nation with a few clicks along with some other interesting tidbits about the countries.
