If some alien race, or some disease existed to decimate the human population (in the old sense of the word, taking away 1/10th of the population) it'd take some 20 years to drop below 1 billion people.

So you'd have to have a whole generation of people grow up this way (more than that, because this is assuming nobody is making babies. If people are still sexing it up it'd presumably take a little longer) in the meantime!

No, I don't know why I'm thinking about this. It's just as weird to me as it is to you.

That's why they say "EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!" instead of "DECIMATE! DECIMATE!"
