Vet inte om den här har varit uppe nån gång, den är gammal men rätt kul ;)
A few months ago, in preparation for the Earth Summit currently hosted by
South Africa, the UN conducted a world-wide survey. The only question was
as follows: "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.
