Default Fact - 10-28-2002, 10:44 PM

7% of the worlds population have access to the internet.
50% of the worlds population have never made a phone call.
By 2005, 1/2 of all calls will be wireless.

Just flipped channels and acme across this. Something to think about. 1/2 people in the world have never made a phone call. How many calls ahve you made in your life? How long have you spent on the Net, when only 7% of people can get on? I found these numbers suprising. I just never really thought of it before. They make sense, but I never would have thought about it like this. Many things we take for granted.
