As you may know, they also drive on the left in Ireland. However, Ireland is now a member of the European Common Market, and so they have decided that it is time for a change. They have decided to switch to driving on the right in the next millennium -- that is, as from the year 2000. However, the Irish government realizes that this sort of major change takes some time to get used to, so they have worked out this schedule:
- from January 1st, all heavy lorries must drive on the right.
- from February 1st, all busses must also drive on the right.

A worldwide survey was carried out with the following question:
"Please give us your opinion on the lack of food in the rest of the world." No result was achieved, since the following problems were faced during the survey's implementation :
1. In Africa no one knew what "food" is.
2. In Western Europe no one knew what "lack" is.
3. In Eastern Europe no one knew what "opinion" is.
4. In South America no one knew what "Please" is.
5. In the United States of America no one knew what "rest of the world" is.
