   Hi - I am having trouble locating who coined the phrase  
"existential risk".  I remember that Bostrom has written extensively  
on it, but I had thought that the phrase/term was used elsewhere prior  
to Nick's writings.  Also, I am referring to "extinction risk" in a  
paper, and I do not know who coined this?  Anyone know?.

   Thanks so much!

   Natasha
