Something Worth Thinking About...

My History professor brought up something very interesting that I thought I'd share.

If the world was condensed to 100 people, and all the ratios were kept the same. This is what the world would look like:

60 Asians
12 Europeans
14 Americans (North and South)
13 Africans
1 Australian

50 women
50 men
10 are homosexuals
33 are Christian (Catholics, Protestants, and Orthodox)
18 are Muslim
16 are Hindu
16 are non-religious
6 are Buddhists

41 live without basic sanitation
16 live without an improved water source

6 people own 59% of the entire wealth of the community
13 are hungry or malnourished
14 can't read
7 are educated at a secondary level
8 have a computer
4 have an internet connection

The village's total annual expenditures are just over US$3,000,000 per year
US$181,000 is spent on weapons and warfare
US$159,000 is spent on education
US$132,000 is spent on health care

If you keep your food in a refrigerator,
Have clothes in your closet,
Have a roof over your head,
Have a bed to sleep in every night,

Then you are richer than 75% of the entire world population.

If you have a bank account,
You are one of the 30 wealthiest people in the world
25 struggle to live on US$1.00 per day or less
47 struggle to live on US$2.00 per day or less

People have made all the difference in the world - for good and for bad.

Yes, I won it. :P All because of a sell-off within the last 10 minutes. Hooray for huge fast formula calculating. :D

A new age has started for Elite Destruction and I shall be playing again. I think this time I'll have more competition. :P

MediWar is also going fairly well. I think I'll get top 3 out of a thousand people, so thats not bad. :)

On another note... The Armagetron Fortress League (AFL for short) started a few weeks ago, and 2 friends and I started a team for it. So far we are UNDEFEATED. Yes, thats right. Undefeated. :D We beat the best european players on a european server. Now THATS something. Although, two of their best players didn't show up because of conflicts... But... We'll be playing them again in the playoffs, so that'll determine who's the best. :) And we'll be playing on an American server then... :P

Well this was kind of a boring post. I guess my life has been kinda boring lately... :P Oh well, maybe I'll put a more interesting post later.

Byeya. :D

*edit*

Okay, yea I know... I'm a loser... So sue me. :P
