Did you know that...
according to a recent survey of 18-25 yr old Americans; 80 percent could find Iraq on the map, 60 percent couldn’t find GREAT BRITAIN (!!!) and 11 percent (you know what’s coming next don’t you!)…couldn’t. find. Their. Own. Country.

bear in mind the researchers were all 18-25 too
so their research was probably 80% wrong ;)

80 per cent you say?
Surely not. Most of the Americans I met of that age couldn't find their arse with both hands and a flashlight.
