...India wants to honor the famously resilient spirit of Mumbai, it could begin by acknowledging that India no longer "lives in its villages" as Mahatma Gandhi said it did - at least not in the same way. Town and country are more connected than ever. Most of India's wealth is created in its cities, generating the tax revenues that fund the schools, electricity and clean water villages need so desperately.

...considered my sister Lisa and her husband Mike for quite a while, since they live in a nice suburb in a homemade-soap-filled home and share a lot of our beliefs. But that guy watches an awful lot of gore movies, and he laughs at them. And they bicker a lot, and I'm defining bicker broadly enough to include discussions between opposing players in NBA games. Plus, they don't want kids, which is a big consideration when you're giving someone...
