How many species are there?

[b]Eight million, seven hundred thousand[/b] species! (Give or take 1.3 million.) That is a new, estimated total number of species on Earth—the most precise calculation ever offered—with [b]6.5 million[/b] species found on land and 2.2 million dwelling in the ocean depths.

I think it's pretty clear that Brian was referring to human species. There have been around a dozen of these (paleoanthropologists are still having slap fights over the exact count) which makes him a lot less wrong.  Not 'right', but less wrong.

You now speak 'Brian'?   Consoling 

I'm so sorry.
