I'm not sure if this is amazing....or depressing! LOL!

Take a look at this clock...

I would say interesting.  Seeing that the clock is built based on data.  And some of the date came from Wiki, I'm not sure how much to believe is true or not.
May the stars always shine upon you and yours.

Well, as the "Source Page" states

The stats in the World Clock updated as of July, 2010, using several resources for statistical data:

World Health Organization
CIA Factbook
US Census bureau
UK HomeOffice
Avert.org
International Union Against Cancer
StateMaster
NationMaster
Center for Immigration Studies
National Wildlife Federation
EarthPolicy.org
Wikipedia
We will do our best to keep this data current. This is not an easy task as much of it varies widely throughout the year and many sources report contradictory figures. We recommend that you double-check any stats with other sources.

...so I'm sure there is wiggle room as far as numbers are concerned

Sorry if I came off wrong, I'm not saying its not right.  I'm just wondering what info came from Wiki.

But it is very interesting in general.
