Geet,

I know it's sometimes common for people to poke fun at their own
nationality. I don't know if you're Indian yourself, but I'll give you the
benefit of the doubt; with that said, this mailing list isn't a place for
stereotyping people from certain countries. Even if it's your own country,
and even if it's meant with love, please don't do it here.

Best,
Bartholomew
