By now I'm sure you have heard about Ted Turner's comments on Charlie Rose the other night. He's concerned about global warming. Oh .. poor Ted. Things are just getting too hot for him, and clearly his brain is starting to cook.
Anyway ... Today Ted said that if we don't do something about global warming in about 40 years most of us will be dead and the rest of us will be living in Somalia or Sudan eating each other. He also said that there just too many people in the world.
Too many people?
OK .. we did a little math problem yesterday. We moved every single in the entire world .. every single man and woman from New York, Mexico City ... every person from every state and every continent of the world ... each and every one of them to Duvall County, Florida. To house all of these people we built two 80-story high rises on every single acre in Duvall County. OK ... I know this doesn't leave room for commercial establishes and services. We're not interested in fast food joints and such. We just want to house every single person alive today in the entire world in Duvall County. Not one living soul anywhere else. So we have two 80-story high rises on each acre. How many people will be living on each floor of each high rise? Answer? About 80.
Crowded? Perhaps so ... but not as bad as the hills above Caracas --- and all those people will be there also.
Now .. to have more fun, we just built one 100 story high rise on every acre of land that Ted Turner owns in the U.S., then we move in every single person in the entire world. That leaves room for all the infrastructure and services. How many people per floor? Around 35. Everybody has their own bedroom.
Get the point? There are not too many of us. There are just too many of us who won't hit a lick at a snake.
Knowing he has loooong since lost it...I don’t understand this headline!
Perhaps this video will help clarify his even further losing it:

Apparently, global warming is going to make us cannibals in the very near future.
Right.
He is a perfect example of why the Baker Act was put into law.
Ted, do us all a favor and leave the planet. It is pieces of trash like you that have expended more energy and resources than any 1000 normal people combined.
He also said that Russia, and especially China, were trying to be our FRIENDS. He is really losing it.
Yes… Ted and his buddy Al have been certifiable for at least 20 years.
Gee, the temperature has dropped since 1998... it had better get a move on if it’s going to meet its 8 degree increase quota in 30 to 40 years...
Ted was always odd, this absurd statement is “normal” from him.
Good one!!!
Furthermore, his hamburgers are not really very good, except good and expensive
Yes Ted, regardless of the weather, you and AlBore will certainly be dead in 40 years....It's a good thing.
Ted’s been watching too many post-apocolytic zombie movies.
He's obviously a "flesh eater!"
The thing that frightens me most isn’t crazy Ted himself. It’s the fact that so many others have met him over the years and still invested money in his business ventures.
Isn’t this the Ted Turner who merged Time Warner with AOL, thinking that he was going to make a mint?
