being in congo(thats central africa) for past one year, and with lots of time in hand to think( though i wonder, does one only needs time to think! what about something called 'brain'!!) ; people come up with ideas, thoughts, wishlist.. etc. i had my wishlist ready too, always being the one who loves to be on the road( driving i mean! not the beggar kinds!) i used to surfing auto magazines, sites, experts and anyone with a bite on it! and i had almost zeroed it down to a swanky looking SUV. but than for last 3 months, the only news channel in here, INDIA TV(imagine! thats the only channel they can air for free here! i knew you don't expect much for free...but still!!) started airing these news reports about the end of earth.. what they call "dharti ka mahavinash"!! everytime i switch on the channel, i see a host standing(at best he can pass off as a salesman!) and in the background there will be a graphic of globe either drowning or on fire! this left me confused, but than i followed it and realised the fire will cause the earth glaciers to melt and than water level rising..comprende, but is it really that scary, i doubt that. i mean we have these great scietist all around the world, the general awareness level of the world is increasing, people are aware of the problems around and if they are not, well we have INDIA TV to tell them! so i am sure, we are going to get over this problem too. meanwhile i have changed my plans as of now and going to buy a motor boat instead of a SUV(chuckles!).
