@Robin H.

It seems that if and only if extinction was occurring, would your approach to be valid. If not, the potential causes would be the ones to address, not the ones that have nothing to do with it.

If that is accurate, what probability do you assign to human extinction being in process today?

Off to the ridges for a hike. :)

With that in mind, I thought I'd address a thought or two...
