U.N. Survey
 
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...

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.

Australia ignored it as there was
no mention of payment in beer for their time.

Retlaw.

I liked that :D


If by chance they do ask - don't reply.
They want to assess the extent of personal food stockpiles so that they can evaluate the effect of a food shortage when they cause it.
