Quick joke

Bono, the lead singer of the band U2 is famous throughout the entertainment industry for being more than just a little self-righteous. He is playing a U2 concert in Glasgow, Scotland when he asks the audience for total quiet.Then in the silence, he starts to slowly clap his hands, once every few seconds. Holding the audience in total silence, he soulfully says into the microphone, "Every time I clap my hands, a child in Africa dies."



A voice with a thick Scottish accent, from near the front of the crowd, suddenly pierces the silence...

Wull, yuuude' bettah storp dooin' it then!"

It's a "forum-dependant' joke.
