Title: "30 million" kenyans apply for the US green card lottery

I would put it at 700K. Those applications I gave info to apply told me that most cyber cafes were very busy.

About 3,000 are issued for each African country, but I am wondering what % of working age countries are actually out of the country (If you include the middle east, asia, europe, etc)
