Buddy of mine had a co-worker come back from a business trip to India still rather twitchy. Said co-worker had been there for a week; on the last day, his driver asked him if he knew why Sikhs (the driver was a Sikh) made the best drivers in the world. Fellow had been dealing with traffic in India by not looking out of the car and prayer, chiefly, so he was already a little wobbly on the whole subject and had to admit to the driver that he didn't know why Sikhs might be particularly suited to driving. The answer? "We do not fear death." -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
