To-day the president of the United Nations, Anion Blatsky reported that
the world now has one hundred billion people, with the birth of a
child in the small town of London. The former capital of the old
kingdom of Great Britain, was the seen of great celebration as the town
fathers said they were going to be putting on a big party.
Citizens of the town were busy taking pledges from all over the solar system
of gifts for the new born.
Doctors were still busy checking to see if the child was AIDS resistant.
If all the health tests are negative the child could be a candidate for
a free inter cranial link with the system wide web.
U.N. presidential officials have said that one extra mouth to feed in such an
under developed area of the world, would not be a serious drain on the
local food supply.
The first Citizen of the Asteroid Federation, Citizen Woo has pledged funds
if the food shortage in the London area becomes acute.
The U.N. center for population control has assured the world that the parents
of the child were indeed the winners of the Europa birth lottery. He noted
that it was about time as that area did not have a winner in the last ten
years.
A name for the child has as of yet not been given out, but the child's
father Alfee #826 says he is looking for a name with as low a number as
possible so the child will stand out in the world. The mother Sara #1422
said in an interview from the home of a friend, the Lord mayor of London,
Mayor O'Ross, "This child has changed our luck, now Alfee even has
a job." Sara #1422 should be on her feet soon, and back at her job in the
gas house.
