Applying some worldly statistics on IW gives the following result:

1) Approximately 1,600 of us are Chinese whether we konw it or not. Another 1,500 of us are Indians.
2) Only 80% of our members know how to read and write (any language). That means that 2,000 of our members never post or visit.
3) Only two people in here speak the same language.
4) Only 5,000 of us have ever heard of Jesus.
5) 3,500 members are under 15 years old.
6) 1,600 of us live on less than a US$ a day.
7) 3,500 of us go to bed hungry
8) 60% of the wealth is owned by 600 members

Some statistics roughly transferred to IW....

Well you learn someting new and strange every day... how can only half of us have heard of Jesus?

They were out taking a leak, and missed that part.

Well there are lots different religions in the world. And 50% of the people in the world hasn´t heard of Jesus. Then perhaps we don´t know the names of their God/Gods ;) [img]smile.gif[/img]

I want to know which two of us speak the same language! :D ;)

There's another here who knows how to talk Bokkanini?!?

hehe...interesting results.

Hmm I may have phrased that in a wrong way... Counting all the languages and dividing it with the number of members give that 2 people speak one language, another two speak a different language etc. etc. ;) Maybe I should have written that only 3,000 members speak English ;)

What was that Cloudy? I didn't get you there.
I wonder why I keep coming here; I don't understand any of you!
Oh, and for the record, I'm one of those 20% who can't write or read, so I suppose that could explain it as well.

How many people on this board are insane, by the way?

I couldn´t find any statistics on that Legolas. But there´s always me [img]graemlins/blueblink.gif[/img] Another interesting fact is that 300 of us are convicted felons. ;) Oh oh! And approximately 6,000 of the members are female! Hah! ;)

what are you talking about,*hides in corner innocently*

Well after being on this forum for long enough, im guessing at least 60% of us. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

which two can speak profanity?

and only 300 of us should even be able to use much less own a computer [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I speak gibberish.

I thought the insanity would be a good bit higher...

That seems like a pretty low estimate to me :rolleyes: [img]tongue.gif[/img]

What this doesn't tell us is how many of us are unconvicted felons. :D

about 20% of members sit wearing nothing but shorts and socks in front of our computers.

I've done that before, when I'm writing a post before just going to bed or something. Dunno bout the twenty percent though [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I think it's close enough ;P but you really want to know what 80% are wearing?

Right now I'm not wearing anything at all. Time to turn on the Webcam and scare the living **** out of everyone. :D

J/k... Shorts and T shirt. ;)
