Tangential to recent threads

I'm not suggesting that anyone on this list is promoting these
viewpoints, so don't flame me.

All the recent discussions on population control twigged my memory
about the extremists out there who dream of ways to achieve human
extinction. I thought it might humor, bewilder, or frighten you to
read their manifestos.

I have a vague recollection of some space commentator coining a
phrase about them. Does anyone have more information on who it was
and what they said?

And now, without further ado . . .

"The vast multitudes who are unwilling and incapable, including
myself and the majority of the followers of this church, are Useless
Vermin, and must be eliminated so that the Earth can heal herself."

"...it becomes more and more clear to me every day that mass
sterilization is the only answer to our environmental problems"

"I'm ready to hop in a B-52 with a payload of genetically-tailored-
virus smart-bombs, enough to sterilize 99% of the world's population
in one trans-globe flight. Someone need only invent the hardware,
train me, and present me with the opportunity. Maybe in 10 years it
will be possible."

"We support, for example, involuntary sterilization, but we would
also welcome the escape of any new anti-Human viruses--such as the
airborne version of AIDS that might result from AIDS research on
mice."
