That depends.  Here in the US, if you're a Republican, the proper response is
to face it squarely, and firmly tell it "No[e]!"  If one is a Democrat, one's 
seat is likely to be so cracked as to be on the verge of utter disintegration
after all these years.  (Of course, it should be acknowledged that the average
Republican is convinced that there is no crack in his seat, only the working
class would be so vulgar...and they never undress with the lights on (indecent,
you know) so they can remain blissfully ignorant.

I used to be a Democrat, until I had to work for a living.  Then I was a 
Republican, until I had to get another job.  Now I'm a college student, and
don't have time for such frivolity.

apnews reports:
	   CHANDIGARH, India (AP) _ Five tourists who had dangled thousands
of feet above ground in the Himalayas for two days in a stranded
cable car were rescued by helicopter Thursday, ending an ordeal
that killed one person.
	   Five other Indian tourists were hoisted to safety aboard a
helicopter late Wednesday.
	   The cable car was left dangling 4,620 feet above ground in the
Himalayan foothills Tuesday when two of its three cables snapped as
it reached the landing platform.
	   The car slid down the third cable at a speed of 270 mph and
became entangled in the knotted and severed cables at the midpoint
of the 1.2-mile line, officials said.
	   The operator jumped 40 feet to his death as the car began to
fall. A passenger who also jumped broke his hip and was in serious
condition Thursday.
	   On Wednesday evening, a helicopter lowered a commando onto the
roof of the car, where he opened the trap door and pulled up a
4-year-old boy and four adults so they could be hoisted up to the
helicopter.
	   The operation was halted at nightfall with five more tourists
and the commando still in the car, and resumed after daybreak
Thursday.
	   The survivors were taken to an army base and not allowed to
speak with reporters.
	   The cable car operates between two tourist resorts in Parwanoo
town in the northern state of Himachal Pradesh.
	   It was the third accident since the trolley was installed in
1988. The previous ones were not fatal.
	   Hundreds of tourists ride the car every day from Timber Trail
resort to Heights resort.

Hi

I donot know in which place you are in. In New York there are lot travel
agents who can give round trip tickets to India for less than $1300. But
it depends on you by which airlines you want to go. If you donot mind in
taking any airlines the fare can be about $1000  even to Madras, calcutta,
and other interior places, that way may be even cheaper to Delhi and Bombay.
Do you get India Abroad News paper. In that lot of ads from New York. Even
AIR INDIA tickets also cost you about $1300-1400 (to Madras and to other
interior places).recently I bought for $1300 (for JFK-MADRAs-JFK) by AIR
INDIA. But i can't assure you that you may also get it at the price. But 
all other travel agents were quoting about 1400/-. Other airlines no problem,
you can get it even for $1000. If you want to travel by air india, i can help
you in sending some phone numbers.


LET ME MAKE IT A POINT THAT I CAN SEND SOME PHONE NUMBERS AND ASK NECESSARY
INFO, IF YOU RAE TRAVELLING BY AIR INDIA. I INSISTED MY FAMILY MEMBERS TO
GO BY AIR INDIA ONLY. PLEASE DONOT THINK THAT I AM some sort of travelel agent.
IF YOU ARE NOT GIVING THAT MONEY TO INDIA WHY SHOULD I HELP YOU?

Hey doki you tasteless morAn (tm?),

Finally someone posts something worth READING on the net and you object?
Of course, someone accustommed to your type of verbal diaorreah would
probably find decent posts unpalatable. Man, I feel sorry for you.

And Shyamala, I am sure you wont take the MorAns (tm?) statements

If this is a personal attack on me in disguise, here is my answer. I don't
have to live in India, to do something for the country. I can get more done 
from here than there. A lot of you are plainly angered by my choice to make
the US my home. It is touching to know that you care. 

And, it is really heartening to know that all you nettors, are going to do
great things for India, and go back to India and live there. I can live in 
that vision of hope.

BTW, are you reading a little too much into that one posting. And, never say
never, love knows no boundaries, if you truly and really fall in love.

I can picture this:-
You meet a girl you love, you are fascinated by her, you are about to kiss her,
Ah! suddenly you have to pop the question "Do you love your native land ?"

Maybe you can complete this one...........

**** I am reposting this since I think it did not go through the first
**** time.


There have been very few on the net who have had reservations to the creation
of rec.arts.poems.urdu on the basis that it represents a cultural group
and not really a group for the artistic appreciation of poetry.

Let me put this straight. This group is intended for one and all to enjoy
and artistically appreciate the depth, form and rhythm of urdu poetry. 
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It is not limited to people from any one culture per se. I for example 
do not speak Urdu as my mother tongue. I developed an interest solely 
for the beauty of the language. So, I disagree with all who are trying 
to make this a cultural thing. Yes, you could claim that this group would 
be meaningful to all those who have an inkling for the language. 
Certainly true, but it is not limited to your cultural background.

I am very open to suggestions on whether the net thinks in the majority
that renaming the group is the way to go. If there is no sufficient response
from the net regarding a change in name or charter, it implies to me
from the feedback I have received that the net does not believe so. 

Once again, please post the net of any suggestions that you folks may have.
There is nothing better than a good discussion on this topic. So c'mon
guys we have a few days left, for one and all to air their suggestions.
Please note that Usenet guidelines suggest that the discussion take place
in "news.groups".
