Recently a survey was conducted by the U.N. worldwide.

The question asked was, "Would you please give your opinion about the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

The survey was a huge failure.

In Africa they did not know what 'food' meant.
In Western Europe, they did not know what 'shortage' meant.
In Eastern Europe they did not know what 'opinion' meant.
In South America they did not know what 'please' meant.
And in the U.S. they did not know what 'the rest of the world' meant.
