Russell, the discussion was about Vietnam. I have no idea why you threw in the LM mantra about tree-hugging or why you want to drag this list into such a stupid, low-level discussion about "pesky people over-populating the planet." If this is the sort of thing that turns you on, I suggest you participate in the alt.politics.socialism.trotsky newsgroup where LM supporters make these same points 25 times a day, seven days a week.
