Existentialist Futility!!!

Why bother about water in Moon, is there a water pipeline planned from there; are we now going to run it dry!? Futility of our civilizational efforts is all around us when all we need is a joint effort to eradicate the earth of more important things as hunger, thirst, inequality, pollution, oceanic submersion & the like.

tuh-mey-toh (tomato) or tuh-mah-toh (tomato): Racisim or Not is the question!!!???

It seems that intolerance to difference is the bread and butter of the West and Caucasian Southern Hemisphere. Australian cops state that "Indian community members here point out that some Indian students do not behave properly in public places, especially in trains and market places. They play loud music and speak loudly on the phone in public transport, some can hardly converse in English and many choose to just stick to people from their own region."

In what civilized world does such behavior warrant assault on a particular community. Singapore does levy fines for public nuisance, a rational and civilized way to regulate public space (hence the name, "fine country"). Uniformity if pursued so vociferously would then leave us no different from the Islamic fundamentalists, the Hindu fundamentalists, and the like!!!

Bailout racism or British ego?!

I wonder what it is? But it certainly is nothing to do with any economic rationale that the US is following. Saving banks was easy for the UK, yet Indian subsidiaries in the UK struggled without even a helping hand or even less any attention towards their rescue.

It was not long ago when UK intended to politically oppose the TATA takeover of the "British icons", yes today they refuse to extend any help; am I just seeing economic prudence by British politicians or is it just that the "Raj" has still not been able to digest the fact of the white man working for the brown man?!
