Hence, not nitpicking, please take FWIW The following usage (interchange) of words is one of the most recurring mistakes in English language and when I found it in BR in numerou...

Dear members/mods, Approx until a year ago, used to enjoy jokes at the Humour thread. Then the thread as such suddenly disappeared and I have not been able to find it though after repeated searches. Have we discontinued or merged with some other thread? Also, just read from Dileepullah that Enqyoobu...

I think something radical was proposed to D lama during the meeting. Lama was visibly shaken and lost of words when he came out of meeting. Doesn't seem to be the case going by what DL said to reporters and did to them by being his usual playful self-> The Dalai Lama did meet with reporters at the ...

For an Indic-hating and China-loving media to suddenly sound all patriotic and go on an overdrive about attacks in Australia seems very odd indeed. The conspiracy theory of the media seems less likely from this angle though the lefties enjoy considerable clout with them. Remember the same media dru...

Purefool now becomes an expert on GM crops http://business.rediff.com/column/2009/ ... saster.htm Why do I strongly suspect that the examples he is giving are cherry picking of the bases variety?

Anybody know how much it costs to buy time on TV? If its at all reasonable on a local level, there are much better things that should be being broadcasted instead of adverts about changing the entire structure of Indian government. Yes, the approach has to be multipronged. We should even think of p...
