    I was listening to the Ray Darcy show on Today FM last week and someone texted in about something she had heard about being able to fit the world's population into Co. Roscommon or something like that. Just wondering if anyone else heard this on the show and what was actually said! Its sparked a debate among me and my friends if this was actually true so it would be great if someone else actually heard this other than me!!

    Area of roscommon = 2,400,000,000 sq.m.

    Area of 1 man = 0.25 sq.m.

    Number of people you can fit in Roscommon = 9.6bn.
    Total world population = 6.75bn.

    Yes, it's true.

    I come from Roscommon.
    As a good part of the county is bog, I recommend we move a couple of countries to those parts immediately.
    Lets start with North Korea.

    I can't see it happening in the near future though.
