No harm discussing possibilities.
After all you are no less than a perfect single match.
Ratan Tata should be given the possibility intially evinced by you.
Netters let us all support our resident anchor Dear Umesh's master plan.
Let us appeal to Ratanbhai and Sonia Bhuwa-"Please for India's sake..."

Mukul-da,Jokes apart , after deep thinking I found that the ideal match for Italian origin Sonia Gandhi is Persian origin (Parsee) business tycoon Ratan Tata. She is Cambridge educated (non degree programs) . He is Harvard Bus. School graduate (AMP pogram). Her son (older than me) attended Harvard and did not fail in any subject though had to leave without a degree . so there is a connection between Ratan and Sonia already. Both are of same age.I think you are promoting child marriage by suggesting my name. Her children are older than me.UmeshPS: If her name had become Sonia Gandhi-Maino-Tata her chances of becoming Congress president would have been nil --since Gandhi family is always highlighted (not Mahatma Gandhi's family) in Congress posters.

Shouldn't India's leaders take initiative in living up to Gandhi'sideals and promoting widow remarriage (as shown in movie Water) .Shouldn't Sonia Gandhi (India's shadow CEO) show by example that she she believes in widow remarriage (for herself) and shouldn't Indian President Abdul Kalam and ex-Prime Minister Vajpayee (both long standing bachelors) woo her .Umesh
umesh sharma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:the lest two movies I saw were Sins and Water -- both on female exploitation and based on real situations. Sins was banned after Catholic priests wen to court. Water was sought to be banned by Hindu bodies . I assume either group had seen the movies before agitating for it.Same with DaVinchi Code ban in many NE and South Indian states due to Christian groups.However, the only good movie on the theme of widows I saw -was DOR (thread) a 2006 production - based in current times. The widow reminded me of my college going students in India -before she became widowed and made me wonder if any of them can face similar travails -which is unlikely since they are all well educated and aware. http://www.apunkachoice.com/movies/mov703/my landlord has a single mother from his home state Kerala (now a Canadian) visiting him this weekend but he thinks his parents won't agree. Total disregard for parents wishes is not a problem for me, though -as I have proven time and again :-)If anyone wants to watch theabove mentioned movies - only Sins is in English -but others can be followed by scenes (and if you have read the storyline in advance). I watch Malayalee and Spanish and Chinese movies -like that many times -without sub titles.UmeshPS: I wonder why Sonia Gandhi - India's Cleopetra is still a widow . Why hasn't anyone proposed to her? Isn't she attractive enough? How about some well placed NRI techie?Will her political image be adversely affected if she got married? Jackie married twice after John F Kennedy died .

I spent the whole day (and night) yesterday watching Indian movies (some have Englishsubtitles -like Bandit Queen , others are totally in English --like Sins --both are real stories --some are about Indians abroad -in English )An AssamNet member had recommended thewebsite www.bwcinema.com which charges $3.99 (Rs 180) for unlimited number of Indian movies for 3 days. In one day I have seen more than 10 movies -some by fastforwarding and gathering the meaning from the storyline.Umesh

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Many years ago in a small Indian village, a farmer had the misfortune of
owing a large sum of money to a village moneylender. The moneylender, who
was old and ugly, fancied the farmer's beautiful daughter.
So he proposed a bargain.
He said he would forgo the farmer's debt if he could marry his
daughter. Both the farmer and his daughter were horrified by the proposal.
So the cunning money-lender suggested that they let providence decide the
matter.
He told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an
empty bag.Then the girl would have to pick one pebble from the bag.
1) If she picked the black pebble, she would become his wife and her
father's debt would be forgiven.
2) If she picked the white pebble she need not marry him and her father's
debt would still be forgiven.
3) But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into
jail.
They were standing on a pebble strewn path in the farmer's field. As they
talked, the moneylender bent over to pick up two pebbles. As he picked them
up, the sharp-eyed girl noticed that he had picked up two black pebbles and
put them into the bag. He then asked the girl to pick a pebble from the
bag.
Now, imagine that you were standing in the field.
What would you have done if you were the girl?
If you had to advise her, what would you have told her?
Careful analysis would produce three possibilities:
1. The girl should refuse to take a pebble.
2. The girl should show that there were two black pebbles in the bag and
expose the money-lender as a cheat.
3. The girl should pick a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to
save her father from his debt and imprisonment.
Take a moment to ponder over the story.
The above story is used with the hope that it will make us appreciate the
difference between lateral and logical thinking.
The ga l's dilemma cannot be solved with traditional logical thinking.
Think of the consequences if she chooses the above logical answers.
What would you recommend to the Gal to do? .... C below!!
Well, here is what she did ....
The g al put her hand into the moneybag and drew out a pebble. Without
looking at it, C fumbled and let it fall onto the pebble-strewn path where
it immediately became lost among all the other pebbles.
"Oh, how clumsy of me," she said. "But never mind, if you look into the bag
for the one that is left, you will be able to tell which pebble I picked."
Since the remaining pebble is black, it must be assumed that she had picked
the white one. And since the money-lender dared not admit his dishonesty,
the girl changed what seemed an impossible situation into an extremely
advantageous one.
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Most complex problems do have a solution. It is only that we don't attempt
to think NT000
