Last month in preparation for the Earth Summit currently being hosted by South Africa, the UN conducted a world-wide survey. The only question 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....

In Africa, they didn't know what "food" meant.

In Eastern Europe, they didn't know what "honest" meant.

In Western Europe, they didn't know what "shortage" meant.

In China, they didn't know what "opinion" meant.

In the Middle East, they didn't know what "solutions"
meant.

In South America, they didn't know what "please" meant.

And in the USA, they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
