actually, measurements in many cultures show this is quite culturally
dependent, and is espeically dependent on language.  i.e., japan has
very high intra-country traffic, england low.  i suspect africa's
heavy use of colonial languages and low 'real'-language net content,
may make the 20% figure somewhat optimistic.

but i would very much like to see *real* measurements and *real* numbers.
e.g., ant, do you have anything for za?
