Let me ask it this way: What are the reasons some people give for believing there will be unlimited economic growth? What are their objections to believing that these are valid questions? I mean, we can say that it is unreasonable to believe in unlimited economic growth because (and give some reason), then what do they say? That model you gave in your first email? And if we show where the model might break down, what is their argument?

Assuming there are still some people willing to face reality, what I am really looking for is how to best explain to them that this is a valid question to ask, both theoretically and empirically!!!  Any suggestions?
