The following is a real conversation with fake names.
Two Indians are involved in this brief excerpt in which 
two others are referred to. Some (ir)relevant background: 
E & W are fair-skinned.

W: Do you believe in pulling your kid's nose (presumably to
sharpen the snub nose?)

N: I don't believe in cosmetic surgery.

W: But you have to be concerned with the kid's feelings.

N: (is stumped. Never thought of that. Yet, recovering)
   You are assuming that the kid comes with some inherent
   likes/dislikes etc. for eg. of a snub nose. The kid may
   not give a damn - why do you want to put these ideas 
   into their heads?

W: Remember E? E was telling me the other day that S
   was using honey, almonds and saffron to bring color to
   their kids.

N: You mean get rid of it? I am really surprised about S's color
   consciousness.

W: But, S is looking at it from the kids' perspective -
   They have feelings too. Thats what my sister says.

N: (gossip mode) What about E? 

W: E is concerned only about skin texture.

N: Still, I would have never believed this of S. I still feel 
   that one should teach one's kids not to go by these superficial 
   things.

W: Right. But, then how do these things get imprinted? You
   know my sister. She is the most beautiful in our family and
   she is never happy with her looks, mostly because of skin
   color. We tell her to forget about it, but to no avail.
   How did she pick this up? It is very difficult when everyone
   is so hung up on color.

N: Come to think of it - even I didn't feel anything inferior
   about my color, till those people started calling me names..

W: I was reading the book about how everyone has some self-image
   problem...

(N is taken up with the problem at hand.)

N: But color is such a problem.... 

W: It is high on the skills list perhaps, but not ..

N: Of course, you are more interested in a sharp nose..

Does anybody know what is the F1 visa scene in Bombay ?
How easy, how difficult it is ? 
What has been the most frequently asked question that has been
  difficult to answer ?
What really does a first/second/third time refsual mean ? - has it
  happened that after a few rejects an applicant gets a visa ?
How many times can an applicant go for a personal interview and
  how many times can an application be made through the mail ?


Thanx for your answers.

Subject: Journalist seeks info on India fellowships
Organization: The World Public Access UNIX, Brookline, MA
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 1992 20:16:46 GMT

By way of introduction:
My name is David Churbuck, I am the New England Bureau Chief and
Associate Editor of Computers and Communications for Forbes Maga-
zine.

Since visiting India for a month in 1988 I've become fascinated
with the country, especially its computer industry and the
profound impact that Indian educated and trained engineers have
had on the United State's industry.

I am very interested in researching and writing a book on the
state of India's technical industries, its educational system,
the phenomenon of its expatriates' contribution to the computer
industry, and the effects that computers and communications could
have on the Indian culture and economy.

I am now at the stage of just seeking out grants to support me
and my family (wife, two children, 6 and 4) while I perform the
research for the book. Any suggestions or pointers to organiza-
tions within India or here in the U.S. that might back me would
be appreciated.

 Also, my wife and I travelled together, without the children,
when we toured the country in 1988. We arrived with virtually no
travel plans, relying on the advice of Indian colleagues at
Forbes to follow no schedules and travel around as we fancied.
I'm very happy we did, but the trip was arduous to say the least.
The main question I have is how would my children and wife fare
during an extended stay; where should I establish residence (I
suspect Bangalore, Bombay or Delhi); is learning Hindi and Urdu a
prerequisite for me as a journalist; and what kind of living
costs should I expect to incur for a family of four with ex-
tensive travel around the country.

E-mail responses would be most appreciated.

Nice try, but won't wash. Let me enumerate:

1. Back the wrong horse - bet on a losing horse
2. Flog a dead horse - to argue an issue that is already settled
3. From the horse's mouth - authoritative source of information :-)
4. Hold one's horses - to curb one's impatience :-(
5. Horse of a different color - an entirely different matter
6. On one's high horse - acting in an arrogant, haughty or disdainful manner
7. Horse feathers - nonsense

Hopefully, with that Mr. Ed is hors de combat (unless he is
interested in more hors d'oeuvre, Indian style.)

Sthan.

Chi and Sow are both written in the case of the bride.

The practice of marrying a young woman to a much older man
came much much later ( I was told that this practice evolved
after foreign invaders started coming into India from the 
Samarkhand region, anyone know more about this ? ). 
By the 19th century it became quite widespread.
