Teleophobically ugly? Fear of ends, as in "The End Is Near"?

Yes, the EU has about 500 million people. But specifically, Germany has over 80 million, France and the UK each have about 60 million, Italy is just short of 60 million, Spain has 40 million. And that's pretty much the half-way point in population, just those 5 countries.
Edit: I missed that the 60 million of France and UK counts twice, so you actually hit the half-way point in Italy, with only four countries.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
Was that "Abecedarian"? That's pronounced ABC-darian, not with a k sound, since a c followed by an e, i or y cannot sound like a k. Oddly, it is named from the letters ABCD. The Romans apparently didn't think ABC was enough to get the idea across.
