Amazing how science changes as we learn more. Not that that was ever a realistic number or proposed by anyone credible. 500k is almost unrealistic. One million

Amazing how science changes as we learn more. Not that that was ever a realistic number or proposed by anyone credible. 500k is almost unrealistic. One million a day is probably more along the lines of what we need.
