| #8 And the other 59% can't do math? Remember reading about(from Time Magazine or Newsweek, some time b4 this Internet Age )the consternations in the public schools they caused when they moved in big via migration into the English society. Their children of schooling age could't do toiletry coz their mum didn't know enough to teach 'em how to. Also other pretty grimy and backward things. |

| #7 You assume Musharraf wishes to overturn the feudal structure in Pakistan. There were string motivations behind partition.. these serfs remain uneducated for a reason... |

| #6 And the other 59% can't do math? We tend to poke fun at ol' Perv but this is just another reminder what a tough job he has trying to drag his people, kicking and screaming, into the 19th century without getting killed in the process. I wish him luck, 'cause he's gonna need it! |

| #2 Almost 59% of Pakistanis are still illiterate Which makes the list of countries googling for "sex" even more impressive. |
