A world survey recently conducted by the UN posed the following question:
"Could you please give us your opinion about the food shortage in the rest of the world ? "
This was a huge failure due to the following reasons:
* In Africa, no one knows what "food" is.
* In Western Europe, no one knows what "shortage" is.
* In Eastern Europe no one knows what "opinion" is.
* In South America no one knows what "please" means.
* In the US no one knows what "rest of the world" means.
