Hi KJD: $5.99 meaning Rs. 240 for 1/2 kilo of potol? I never bought any potol
in this country. Ful-kobi, bondha-kobi-ei thik-e aase` aamaar kaarone`. :) And
$3.50 meaning Rs.140 for one mango? Again, kol-Komola- is good enough! Just
like, it's not worth buying 6 shrimps for $20. Never liked shrimps even when I
was a non-vegetarian anyway.
Well! it was good talking about 'bojaar-xomaar' here today. Keep in touch!

Hi abs,
In south-west Houston,you can buy them at $5.99 per pound!!! Guess what? A box
of Indian mangoes ( ten mangoes) will cost you $35.00.After a hiatus of 19
years,these ' golden fruits' are allowed by the US govt.to be imported.I
hope,nobody buys them at that exorbitant price.

Hi All: Could anybody tell me what is the English name of Potol - yes, the
vegetable that is abundant during the summer(?) in Assam and $9.00 a pound in
the US :). Like any other vegetables, I was never crazy about it but it is
okay. But the hindusthani(?) name 'parowol' for 'potol' is just driving me
nuts. I would rather talk about it in English. :) Oh, please don't think this
now: 'eh, aami imaan sirius kotha paati aasu - dex-bidexor baare-boronia
rajnitir kotha-r logote` upor-khapor kotha, eo akou aahil eta paak-ghoror xoru
kotha eta loi'. I better go home to take care of our two beautiful (I better
say, handsome before they feel insulted, but they are too beautiful - you know
what I mean, if you ever have had a dog at home) dogs. Have a great evening,
Everyone!!
