Today's highlights

By now most of you might have already heard the Microsoft story - 2 years from now Mr. Bill Gates will leave his Microsoft job. Definitely this will be a huge loss for Microsoft and its shareholders but it will be a great gain for the humanity. Two great leaders that adore most are Bapu Gandhi and Mr. Gates - both influenced mass. Bapuji moved all Indians against British and Mr. Gates created a mass movement on the PC world (the very vision PC for every household definitely created all the difference in today's world). Anyways, I hope the world humanity is benifited from Mr. Gates service.

Back from my India trip

-
Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well. Well, I am getting back to my rochester life....it was hectic but trip to India was very nice - enjoyed good food (without adding any extra weight), visited few new places - I am sure it will make few very jealous :) I also read couple of good books - one of them was Amartya Sen's "Identity and Violence". It's well written and presented a good economic thinking framework. In my words if we want "basic human values" to sustain in our social value system then only way to achieve is we all should have only one identity i.e. we all should be known as human being nothing else.
