Last month a world-wide phone survey was conducted by the UN. The only
question asked was:-
"Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food
shortage in the rest of the world?"
The survey was a huge failure.
1. In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant
2. In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
3. In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
4. In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
5. In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
6. In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
7. In the USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
8. In Australia they hung up as soon as they heard the Indian accent.
