I heard on the morning news the seven billionth person recently was
born. I am sure the debate over who the seven billionth person is will
long remain unresolved, but while you wait for that question to be
answered how about seeing where you rank in the queue.

FWIW I was the 2,599,639,927th person alive on Earth and the
75,828,015,643rd person to have lived since history began.

I either feel very old or very wise. I will leave it to you to determine
which. <g>

You gotta wonder how they figured "person" for that latter number,
don't you?

Actually no.  It is just a time waster. I wouldn't give it that much
thought.

Why bother?

I've already figured you for an egoist, and it wasn't surprising that
you took the bait.
