The Man with Almost Everything

Huzzah for Phil if he is truly like this:

GolfDigest.com - The Man with Almost Everything: "Verbal deftness comes easily to Mickelson, who says he would 'love' entering politics after golf ('It's the best way to get things done'), and who was always the class nominee to charm the teacher into postponing a test. When Mickelson is on a subject that interests him, he's a dynamo, exhibiting a voracious appetite for information, something akin to a photographic memory -- and a see-through pleasure in showing it all off. Consider this machine-gun screed delivered while walking through a hotel parking lot:

'Our world population is multiplying at 1.9 percent per year, which means it doubles every 40 years, which means that in the year 2600 we are going to have to find another place to live, because we will be standing shoulder to shoulder on this planet. We have other solar systems that are about 35 light-years away that have the same approximate atmospheric conditions. Because the aging process would slow down by a 50-to-1 ratio while traveling at the speed of light, we would age only nine or 10 months. But what is really interesting is that we as human beings are not conducive to space travel. The problem is that osteoporosis would kick in, and our bones deteriorate at a 1.5 percent-per-month ratio. So to survive travel to other galaxies, we will have to evolve physically.'"
