At first I thought this was an April's fool, but the date is actually
March 31 (in my mind it's "illegal" to post such stuff other than
April 1, and I've never see anyone do it before).

It fails the giggle test. Do you imagine that "a few hundred members of
the Texas Academy of Science (would rise) to their feet and gave a
standing ovation to a speech that enthusiastically advocated the
elimination of 90 percent of Earth's population by airborne Ebola"?


On his own homepage Pianka seem to express similar thoughts:

Where?


I still find this thing very hard to believe, and yet, remember what
Hitler, Stalin, Saddam etc. did, and how many who followed them in the
name of some ideology.

Can anyone prove or (hopely) disprove this?
