Hi, all,

I have a student looking for global population data by the actual
numeric value (for example, Shanghai has 17,500,000 people in it as of
2007).  He's not looking for ranges nor is he looking for grided
information such as that which is available from UNEP.  I've been able
to find a table with worldwide population data for cities over 1,000,000
people (471, by the way, your fun factoid for the day).  Anyone have any
other sources, ideas?

Thanks for the help,

Julie
