-
we discovered that the typical story
-
is a surge north in the diagram,
-
representing increased life expectancy,
-
with slow progress in income per capita,
-
and then a surge around the horn, so to speak,
-
into the area upper right of long lives and relative affluence.
-
And I asserted, and many of you agreed,
-
that there's something unambiguously good about that change,
-
that the world is a better place because that change happened.
-
Now I didn't in the lecture
-
lay any great stress on the caveats
-
that people might attach to that.
