How many would have blue eyes? Strange question perhaps but I read somewhere not long ago that everyone on earth who has blue eyes is related. It is apparently all from one oddball gene at one point in time.

Re: [MBZ] One Hundred People
Hi all, The final statement of the Snopes writeup perhaps is most interesting. "On the other hand, if this is the kind of material having a computer gives one access to, the inhabitants of our miniature world might opt to do without them." Now back to your regularly scheduled program... Take care and treat your neighbor as yourself.. Chuck Phoenix AZ PS Have any of you read the "Creed of the Third Milennium" by Colleen McCollough?

[MBZ] One Hundred People
If we could shrink the Earth's population to a Village of precisely 100 people, with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, the Village would look like something like the following : There would be: 57 Asians 21 Europeans 14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south 8 Africans 52 would be female 48 would be male 70 would be non-white 30 would be white 70 would be non-Christian 30 would be Christian 89 would be heterosexual 11 would be homosexual 6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth, and all 6 would be from the United States 80 would live in substandard housing 70 would be unable to read 50 would suffer from malnutrition 1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth 1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education 1 would own a computer Comment?
