7 wonders of the world ! eh what ?



Itz kind of funny there was a opinion poll to decide "Which are the Seven wonders of the world". Sometimes if u ask n noof people you get N opinions.


So that being the case opinion polls are sometimes a Farce.

But whats more startling is the world has a lot more to do than just vote on such meaningless polls. Taj mahal is a Marvel I agree but i don't need to tell someone its the best Monument I have seen. I know it in my heart. All this gimmick is for Tourism and 4 states which mainly survive on Tourism need to win in this game.

India need not !

Indians have been there done that....

From Vinod Khosla founded Sun Microsystems to Vinod Dhams Pentium Processor work.

All the good stuff these days has an indian hand though it might say "made in Xyz".

The only sad thing is dat Bangalore which accounts for a huge chunk of the export revenue and was the Catalyst for Economic revival in India is a mere badly wounded shadow of what it used to be.

Bangalore's name which is one of the recent wonders of the world in terms of technology has lost its sheen. Because of the terrorist incidents in UK.

I consider Bangalore home and some people have tarnished the image of it beyond repair.

chuck the poll, How to repair the image of bangalore is whats in my mind.

Well going by the people involved and how they managed to hoodwink authorities in getting fake driving license etc. I think India itself is not safe against its own people.

The BBC surpisingly has a strange stance on the Terror incidents.
On one hand it condemns moslems. On the other their talk shows are complete with people claiming moslems are a part of british culture and they are misled by foreigners.

This is an interesting view point. Because for one they cannot remove the entire moslem community from the UK. And on the other hand they cannot live with Terrorism. Their only hope lies in trying to make some understanding and try to contain the hatred.

I feel if the moslems in UK do gang up. We will have one more palestine and Israel cat fight on our hands. Only difference the agressors will be Moslems and Britain might lose its land.

Unless countries understand and reform their policies vis-a-vis terrorists and its supporters they cannot rest peacefully.

They need to stop this bowing to the pressure created by Terrorists and should not soften their stand. In India its a different and meaningless cause.
It is ruled by an Italian who has no sense of whats happening. The Reservations are increased to keep the Minority community voters happy.

Who cares about which bomb kills whom.
The italian Femme Fatale is out here to make a fast Buck and make hay while the sunshines.
The Country is really going to the dogs.
