You didn't make a mistake Sarge. You made two massive mistakes. You overestimated your own country's population by 30% and you were off by 12 000% in another key stat. I'd provide a long answer if I respected your intelligence but as it is, I'll just ask you a question.…

And Sarge? 4% of 300 million is 12 000 000, not 400 000. You're off by a factor of 30. Lucky you're not a politician.

CoolCali, Dolphingirl is quoting the article so read it thoroughly before casting aspersions.

The line about people buying fake medicine does seem concocted though. "Haha, I just spent $50 on fake Viagra, haha." The humour would soon wear out.

So an ancient and famous temple burning down isn't big news. Here's a thought. What if it was burnt down by a 10 year old tourist? Haha, it would be slightly bigger news then, wouldn't it?
