Q1 Presence of mind and a repartee arte different aspects; where one is cornered without any idea to retrieve, there, presence of mind , might get some unexpected ideas which might solve the problem. For example, Dr Rangachari, a great surgeon of the 50s when the modern surgery tools and knowledge were not available, did a remarkable thing. His colleague lady was about to attend on a delivery case; suddenly she found it is getting complicated; baby's foot was caught in side the mother which might cause even death of both; she approached Rangachari; ghe was smoking in his room; when she expressed her difficulties her call was only to do any emergency surgery to get the baby out; he thought for a while, while smoking; he walked into the room; just touched the baby foot with the cigarette butt; baby withdrew the foot inside; then in afew minutes baby was delivered and both were saved. That is the presence of mind. Q5 A bachelor and rich who can afford to but if there is a need can be minimalist; but not a family with children; things that MIGHT BE NEEDED ONCE AND OFTEN alone are equipped and not even regularly bought; and all books, electronics and similar things are bought for the pleasure and knowledge. Buying spree all unwanted alone is either not purchasable or can be removed every 1st Jan. Family is different. No minimalist would be there who buys provisions daily unless he is a wage earner. So even in Europe and USA we see homes bearest. In wage earning will any one be minimal? KR IRS 12 9 23
