Across the nation, we’re at about three thousand people. I’ve heard that the world population is about sixty to eighty thousand, but that’s more...guesswork than verified fact, I think.We older people remember when there were police, criminals, and all of that. There’s none of that these days. We’re all too busy trying to live to worry much about anything else. I think they had one guy in Chicago who beat up his brother over a girl they both liked. I don’t really know what his punishment was, but. Brian learned that Eric didn't do much other than going to Mapleville High and working at Save More Foods.
