~6-24-04~ Makes you think....

I got this from Kelly's site, and thought it ws very interesting:

If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look something like the following:

There would be:

57 Asians 21 Europeans 14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south, 8 Africans.

52 would be female 48 would be male. 70 would be non white 30 would be white. 70 would be non-Christian 30 would be non Christian. 89 would be heterosexual 11 would be homosexual.

6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would be from the United States.

80 would live in substandard housing. 70 would be unable to read 50 would suffer from malnutrition.
1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth.
1 (yes, only 1) would have college education.
1 would own a computer.
