Kemble:

In perusing my copy of "World in Figures" from The Economist Magazine I noticed that three countries, all English speaking, lead in computer ownership as follows:

(Per 100 People)
US 45.0
Australia 36.6
Canada 36.4

Interestingly, these same countries lead, in the same order, in the amount of municipal waste produced as measured in kilos per head. Must be something about using a computer that just makes you want to take a shit.

Now if I could only figure out how to profit, (further), from that information. Wait a minute........anybody out there making internet appliances for the bathroom?

Regards,

Greg
