World survey on food
« on: July 25, 2009, 11:41 »
Last month a world-wide 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 because of the following:
 
In Eastern Europe they didn't know what "honest" meant.
 
In Western Europe they didn't know what "shortage" meant.
 
In Africa they didn't know what "food" meant.
 
In China they didn't know what "opinion" meant.
 
In the Middle East they didn't know what "solution" meant.
 
In South America they didn't know what "please" meant.
 
In the US they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
 
And Finally . . . . . . . .
In Australia they hung up because they can't understand an Indian accent.
