Semantic split

OK, I edited the article to clearly differentiate between the two meanings.  What I was thinking was that the "In economics" part should move to Poverty line, since in this sense, being in "absolute poverty" means nothing more than being below someone's "poverty line."  The material left over fot the section on how the phrase is used to mean "extreme poverty" is barely more than a dictionary definition, and so should either be moved to Wiktionary, merged with Poverty, or both.   04:44, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
