Geoas I won't rule out the possibility, though I never had such an experience. The chances are the same as in real life. The fear of stumbling upon the wrong person is unnecessary I feel. One just has to use the common sense.

Geoas I feel it is possible to have 100 posts in a day - but one will have to focus solely on that. It may take three to three and a half hours, if we work nonstop. But I wonder whether anyone does that here. The problem with the Internet is that it distracts you...

Geoas I think it is very easy to change one's eating habits. But some people are not generally open towards change generally - and that just happens to reflect in their eating habits too. It is okay for you because you don't mind eating the kind of food he likes,...

Geoas I belive that travelling changes us a lot. We get to meet a lot of new people, and the unpredicatbility of experiences in travel provides some thrill. We learn a lot, directly and indirectly. In brief, a person who embarks on a journey will return as a...

Geoas It's a difficult situation when someone approaches you to beg for some money or food. Social scientists talk about different ways of eradicating poverty, but such attempts still remain in theory. When someone gives alms, s/he can be blamed to promote begging....

Geoas This sounds horrible. I wonder how you managed to spend your days with such 'relatives'! It may be a question of different perspectives, but it's clear that they made intrusions to your privacy and personal choices. One cannot do much in a situation like this,...

Geoas Thanks for this response. I haven't seen Slumdog Millionnaire, but have read the novel on which it is based. It is Vikram Kapoor's Q and A. I don't know how much they have devaited from the original work, and how they have treated the plot, but it must be an...

Geoas Yes, it's reala cool idea to sell your hair if you are in an emergency. But I wonder what we feel like after we lose our hair for which we had cared for so many years...may be some consolation in the fact that it will grow back, if we have time for it. Good...

Geoas That's a tricky situation. I used to have a student who would try to be too humble and cover up for his lack of hardwork by stressing on his inabilities. But I had the freedom to give him a piece of my mind. In your case, it is too tricky to deal that way. May...

Geoas Back ways, at any rate! But if one dries on one's own, it can be a bit challenging. If someone else is driving (a good one at driving), it gives you an opportunity to sit back, relax, listen to some music and savour the beautiful landscapes! Great discussion.
