THE EARTH If we shrink the earth's population to a statistical representation of 100 people (keeping all existing human ratios the same as today's global population), there would be:		57 Asians, 21 Europeans, 14 from N & S America, 8 Africans 52 females, 48 males 70 non-whites, 30 whites 70 non-Christians, 30 Christians 89 heterosexuals, 11 homosexuals 6 people from the USA would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth 80 would live in substandard housing 70 would be unable to read 50 would suffer from malnutrition 1 would be dying; 1 would be near birth 1 would have a college education 1 would own a computer		[stats from Phillip M Harter, MD, Stanford University School of Medicine]
