Home grown terroist in INDIA??!!???

India Fears Terrorism May Attract Its Muslims from NYTimes

It is an intresting... NO it is a serious matter. It will be so much more difficult to fight these terror attacks if the "terroist" we were killing or being killed by were our fellow countrymen/women. This probelm if not dealt soon will result in many more blasts like the once in the recent past. Wonder what can be done... politician will do nothing other than make it a vote bank issue.

Who needs it !!! :)

Arriving soon, an "anti-stupidity" pill from sify.com

friendship....

Friendship Among the Intellectuals via ALDaily

“It is painful to consider,” wrote Samuel Johnson about friendship, “that there is no human possession of which the duration is less certain.”

Too true. Some friendships die on their own, of simple inanition, having been quietly allowed to lapse by the unacknowledged agreement of both parties. Others break down because time has altered old friends, given them different interests, values, points of view. In still others, only one party works at the friendship, while the other belongs to what Truman Capote called (in a letter to the critic Newton Arvin, his ex-lover) “some odd psychological type . . . that only writes when he is written to.” And then of course there are the friendships that end when one friend betrays or is felt to betray the other, or fails to come through in a crisis, or finds himself violently disputing the other on matters of profoundest principle.

Book I want to read...
