No matter how much you think NO-Biloxi-Pensacola is going to grow in the future, it will not get in range of any of the other clusters on that list in 10,000 years.

Wow, the hyperbole is thick today. For example, in 1970, who would have thought that Phoenix or possibly Seattle and Riverside, CA (in a few years) would approach and possibly pass Detroit in MSA size? Lots can change in 30-50 years, much less 100 years.
