Subject: Fw: Worldwide Telephone Survey ...
Last year, a world-wide telephone survey was conducted by the UN. The only
question asked was:
"Would you please give your honest opinion about possible solutions to the
food shortage in the rest of the world?"
The survey was a complete failure because:
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 USA they didn't know what "the rest of the world" meant.
And in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Great Britain everyone hung up
as soon as they heard the Indian accent.
And that just about sums up
