http://www.paulchefurka.ca/WEAP/WEAP.html Contains considerably more cites than the reprint. But few, if any, from peer-review, and I can't see anywhere who this guy is. That he's done all the fitting of curves himself (second-order - or any order - polynomial fits are notoriously bad for projections) does not fill me with confidence that he knows what he's doing. I'd like to see more than one self-published article to convince me that world population will be below a billion by the end of this century.
