Pff, the statistics comparing China and India, the fastest growing countries fueled by economies out of control because the people living in it are prepared to work for penuts because they live in filth, to the UK? I'm sure if we compare the top students in the UK with the total students in Liechtenstein, we'd have the same results. Is it trying to make us look like idiots? I'm not sure what point it's trying to make, inaccurate calculations based on estimations to predict the future, ignoring the fact that human progress 'jumps', meaning that an invention such as the microchip sparks a series of new technology around the world, rather then a constant stream of technological advances. Working by this video's logic, if I drink one glass of water tonight, then two glasses tommorow night, by 2010 I'll be drinking 2,190 glasses per evening. Am I missing something?
That said, some of the statistics are quite interesting. Good to know that I won't have any jobs when I'm older, since they don't exist :/

Did you know, that it's only one little gene that's keeping humans from living forever?
Tice has a point, but the video is still very interesting.
