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 like this: There would be:

- 57 Asians

- 21 Europeans

- 14 from the Western Hemisphere (north and south)

- 8 Africans

- 52 would be female

- 48 would be male

- 70 would be non white, 30 white

- 70 would be non Christian, 30 would be Christian

- 89 would be heterosexual, 11 homosexual

- 59% of the entire world's wealth would be in the hands of only 6 people and all 6 would be citizens of 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

- Only 1 would have a college education

- 1 would own a computer

The high proportion of 'negative' parameters reflects the very high breeding rate of the people involved in them.

Be a gret village to live in if you were one of the 6 rich ones with a computer and an education.

Plenty of cornershops to get your food and newspapers. Lots of Indian and Chinese takeaways.
More women than men.

How about the one that states that more people per year die of nasties contracted in UK hospitals, than die in UK road traffic accidents...?
