When Numbers Speak Louder Than Words

[Katalina]

I found this small tidbit from the most recent issue of "Time." On one of their pages, they give out "percentage" information which I like to read. Anyhoo, the following is what it reads:


71% - Percentage of adults in a recent survey who could
name a member of the rock band U2

15% - Percentage who could name the Chief Justice of the
U.S.

Go U2!!

I'm sure we all know which member that was, though (and I'm thinking it wasn't Larry).

Yay! Go U2!

 

[FallingStar]

I'm sure we all know which member that was, though (and I'm thinking it wasn't Larry).

Don't you think so?

Who is the Chief Justice?

i bet 80% of that 71% named a guy named "bone-o."

I like 71% of the members of U2 better than the Chief Justice.
