I've been in Bangalore multiple times in the recent past and I dont think
I've seen any of the bus stop names written in English.

Not strange at all. I've lived in Bangalore from 1999 uptil 2002. I visit
bangalore once in a couple of months, after that. And, I usually stay either
in Koramangala
or in Indira Nagar. I've not seen any bus stop names painted in English. You
are not insinuating that English is written in Kannada...;)

 Strange! When I was the last time you came to Bangalore? I live in
 Bangalore since Jan 2007
 till now. I travel from all the way from  Frazer Town to Electronic
 City every weekday and I see bus stop
 names written in English all the way.

 Perhaps there is a confusion between stop names on the buses itself and the
 names of the stops as written on the bus-stop shelters!

Yes. Indeed.  I am referring to the latter.

stop names on the buses:
Only Volvo AC and other BIA Airport buses have the stop names in English.

 What the post intended to say was that monopolies should be

Here is an article which shows that Google is set to overtake
Microsoft financially!

http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/5/google_to_surpass_size_of_microsoft_windows_in_2009

Expecially noteworthy is the important observation on why Google
will rise --- It is a natural monopoly.

Let me re-iterate that it is not my intention to say that Google is
evil --- howver, as companies become monopolies they tend to take
the either you are with us or you are against us attitude. This
is road from civility (inter-operability) towards evility. ;)
