I would not have held it for possible to be a functional person, "healthy and intelligent" according to "medical professionals" at the time, while weighing only 2.1 kilograms, so I thought I'd share
Has anyone else ever wondered what would happen if we would choose to stay smaller? As a teenager I was thinking that, child-sized, we could all live very comfortably in apartments half the size of today's, need far less food and other resources from the earth, transportation becomes a lot easier... Not that I expect this to actually happen, but it does seem like a solution to a lot of problems that would otherwise require significant changes. At least with today's medicine where infant mortality is such that the population (in developed places) does not need many children and does not significantly grow anymore (otherwise it would just delay the inevitable)
