Some of them are definitely not bite size platitudes Or non-existent? I think Cheeni wants us all to believe we have a crisis in India which is staggeringly disappointing to anyone who claims to be from India :))) People in India suffer from the same crises of confidence that plague the Americans or the English - give or take a few cultural biases. Yes, India is not "developed" but that is not really because Indians "lack confidence" but just the right elements for development has not come together yet (things are happening, so some serendipity might favour India soon). And to put the development of the White World as the work of "confident" white people is to devalue the right potent circumstances that helped bring it about. -- srs (blackberry)
