Desis love simple solutions

Yes, I have come to that realization. The examples of this are all around you. Change the name of the city, corporation and viola it is going to do better.

So, what if there is no pedestrain crossing, cross the road where ever you want, whenever you want. Hey, it is a free country.

"The darn government is so corrupt I have decided not to pay my taxes."

Last time I was in India my mom shoved a copy of newspaper article under my nose. It was an article about some guy or kid who had come up with a way to fuel your vehicle with water. Mom feels it is going to change the world, catapult India to the top of the world. The reality is it is far from being a commercial product. And, in a country where a large majority do not have access to clean water for their essential needs where are you going to get clean water to run your vehicle engines. And, in the meantime what is being done about those darn trucks and buses that belch thick black smoke?
