Folks, Just a clarification. I think Mr. Premji held the title of world's richest man for all of three (or was it four?) months when the WIPRO stock was in those stratospheric levels during the recent "(ir)rational exhuberance" of the US stock market. Those interested may want to check the Forbes (www.forbes.com) website since they keep a track of such indicators! :-) As far as the rest of the post, pretty much recycled stuff. In the absence of any specific data to substantiate claims/counter-claims, this discussion will essentially peter down to the "he said-she said" variety. For example, take the statement often bandied around "thousands of Hindus are killed in Kashmir everyday." Anyone having an iota of common sense would think hard before swallowing such nonsense, given that it flies in the face of reason. And that, even when it's being offered as hyperbole! Assurances such as "Trust me, I know what I'm talking about" is hardly a way to build credibility in a discussion, especially when these assurances are preceded by hype and erroneous "facts" (BTW, isn't that an oxymoron?)! :-) Best, James _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-W-E-B---S-I-T-E-=-=-= To Subscribe/Unsubscribe from GoaNet | http://www.goacom.com/goanet =================================================================== For (un)subscribing or for help, Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dont want so many e=mails?
