According to the web site PictureofHealth.com,
"Most places on Earth, the internet is more accessible than electricity, clean water, or basic sanitation."
I have a hard time believing that statement.
May be so, but not to the people who lack electricity, clean water or basic sanitation.

In 2010 you can expect smart phones too, I guess. And there you have -- internet access in rural India, where there is no water and electricity.
