My family is not quite so large as you seem to think, nor do we waste
entire trainloads of food.  Or perhaps you know of some very small
African countries.

No doubt you were referring to "small African families."  In that case
you are quite probably correct.  If you want to come scrape out my 
garbage can and mail the proceeds to them, you are quite welcome.
But that won't solve the problem of hunger in the undeveloped countries. I
maintain that nothing will, except helping them to become self-sufficient 
in food.
