to help you: my mother came from a family of 10 in a 3 bedroom house... lots of stories about eating fast and sharing beds. she had 3 children, as did almost all of her siblings except 2... 1 had 1, 1 had 0. i'm not ashamed that i had my own room growing up, and always had more than i wanted to eat. my wife is pregnant.

But most likely they will, on average, choose to have the average number of kids.

wow, you are bad at logic. they MOST DEFINITELY will have the average number of kids on average... BECAUSE IT'S THE AVERAGE.

now do some research and let me know the average number of children had grouped by number of siblings... then you can start talking about something relevant.

including the original poster... is 19 kids in 1 generation really that much worse than 4 kids each over 5 generations at earlier and earlier ages of reproduction?

if i grew up with 18 brothers and sisters, the last thing i would want for my children would probably be a similar environment... those 19 kids and counting all might choose to not have ANY children.

understanding their inability to maintain defense against a virus/worm/malware pool growing exponentially and causing their product to all but render a home PC useless, they attempt to reach the hearts and minds of the people causing that pool to grow.

i have a feeling this marketing ploy will function as good as anything else from norton.

so being a geek is laying down and doing whatever the media tells you to do...

the tag line on the site suggests this is a "nerd" site however, and fighting oppression with force certainly does matter.

however the REAL point of my argument that you obviously missed, busy doing whatever geeks do, was: THE MEDIA IS NOT IN CONTROL.
