seriously, i asked a teenager (about 15) about North Korea.. he
didn't know that Korea is split into two... all he knew about were
some Korean actors, popstars, tv series and movies...
i asked him about his views of the Palestinian issue... he gave me
a blank stare..
i asked about Iraq... he thought the US never left after "that time
where saddam go and invade kuwait" and was fighting all this
while..
the last bit was hilarious if not so tragic... i asked if he knew
who the G8 was.. he said he never heard of the band 
so.. i pray that he is part of an extremely small minority
