More than One-quarter of all Americans met the criteria for having a mental illness problem within the past year, and fully over a quarter of those had a "serious" disorder that significantly disrupted their ability to function day to day, according to the largest and most detailed survey of the nation's mental health, published in 2007. Mental illness is a growing problem throughout the world.

It has been said that there are enough blocks in 5 pyramids to build a wall 7 meters high and 1 meter thick around the county of Iran.
