This, of course, is assuming a rather loose definition of 'English-speakers'- more so for the USA than for India. The Philippine are not third - as they like to claim- since out of a total population of 90 million, less than half really speak enough English to qualify, but now the third slot is China (almost 300 million, so far out of 1.3 billion). China is catching up quickly with India and the US, due to changed priorities in the educational system there, will probably surpass everyone before 2010. The UK, BTW is still in the top-10 ;-) No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
