[quote=CindyBindy][quote=Anonymous]Oh, and to echo a PP, do please drop the habit of calling those with whom you disagree "retarded."  We don't use that word anymore--it's not nice to those of different mental abilities, and it's not nice to the target of your intended epithet.  [/quote]

Apologies for using that word. I let that slip out in a moment of frustration, but that's still no excuse. I know people whose kids have mental health issues so I'm actually usually careful about the words I use. Still, no excuse.

I had no idea those were trolls. If so, I suppose I need new troll armor.

Oh dear! Okay, just in case I am cast as the Ultimate Indian Defender, among people who know me in real life I'm actually India's worst and most unforgiving critic. There is so much wrong with India that it would take many threads for me to explain it all. However, the reason I felt I had to jump into this thread because, even though I am India's worst critic and have plenty to say about the country and Indian society that would burn your ears (and maybe I'll do that some time, in the right circumstances), I also do know when Indians don't deserve criticism.   =)

Edit: however, I will watch my tone as I realize condescension, even if unintended, is hurtful.
